Dollar for Dollar Matching Campaign: December 5th -12th Get excited! We're kicking off a Friends and Family campaign on Monday December 5th, just for teachers. For 1 week, donations from teachers' friends, family, and other supporters can be matched dollar for dollar!
 * From Donors Choose...**

How does it work? We'll share a special match code that's valid December 5-12th. When your family & friends make a donation, they just enter this match code during check-out, and the donation is instantly doubled! If you've participated in a past Friends and Family campaign, this year the matching is automatic so it's easier than ever.

Two things you should do now:
 * __Submit a project,__ if you don't have any currently available for funding
 * __Make it easy to find your projects__: you can send friends and family to your teacher page at http://www.donorschoose.org/we-teach/3417. If you haven't already, log-in to personalize the URL of your page.

Important details:
 * We will email you the exclusive match code on the morning of Monday, December 5th. Be sure to check your email.
 * To receive the match, donors must enter the match code during the payment process - there will be a clearly labeled space for it. Only new donations can be matched (e.g. donations made with a gift card will not be matched).
 * The campaign begins at 9am EST on Monday, December 5 and ends at 11:59pm EST on Monday, December 12. Donations given before or after the campaign period will not be matched.
