Calling All Bleeding Hearts

A collection of bloggers at ScienceBlogs have set up challenges to raise money to help schoolteachers fund educational projects for their students. The projects on which they’re focusing, in conjunction with DonorsChoose.org, don’t require huge donations—just a little bit here and there to help public school teachers to provide the books, equipment, and field trips to, as Mike the Mad Biologist says, make science come alive for kids. And with the constant assault on science in the classroom, the cause of turning kids on to science is more important than ever.

If you can’t afford to donate, you can always help just by passing on the word. Below you’ll find the ScienceBlogs bloggers who are participating with Bloggers Challenges.
