So you want to make a difference for public education?

Have I got a deal for you. Today is a special day for the Save Our Schools March and National Call to Action Today is our 2nd one-day fundraiser, our money cascade, about which you can read at our Cause page

Your contributions to us are now tax-deductible, and we take PayPal.

And boy do we have lots of news.

You can read about our many endorsers, which is constantly expanding, and which now includes statewide teachers unions in Wisconsin, North Carolina, Colorado and Florida; many local teachers unions including Chicago; the National Council of Teachers of English; Matt Damon and his mom noted educator Nancy Carlsson-Paige. Read the list. It is impressive. Yes, I am listed, as are other members of the executive committee.

But yesterday we got some very interesting news, which I will share below the fold, even as I request you to support us, even with a nominal contribution. I willalsoexplain why we need your financial assistance.
