I donated $250 to Redwood Gospel Mission. Now I’d better finish my book tomorrow!

I’ll be reading for Poets.org to ensure that they have more capital in this rough economy to foster the love of poetry.

As a former Teach for America corps member and 2nd grade teacher in very high poverty area of Chicago, I'm reading for a grant posted by another TFA member and 2nd grade teacher in Chicago (I have no idea who she is, but since she's in the same boat I was, I want to help out). She has a grant up for over 30 books for interactive readalouds. I will be donating $5 for every book I read and encouraging others to sponsor me.

I’m going to read for Best Friends Animal Sanctuary…we give to them several times a year and thought it would be nice to combine the Read-a-thon with our next giving

I’ll be posting about it later on today.

I have decided to donate 5 cents for each page I read to a foundation that helps penguins! I am unsure which foundation I will donate to as of right now, so I’m going to do some research first.

I will be reading for RAIN (Rape and Incest Victims). Two members of my family have been raped and so it is a cause that is close to my heart.

I’m reading for the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer fund as well – specifically for my in-laws’ 3-day fund. I posted about it here (note, I just moved my blog so this is my old one):
