I’ve got $75 in classroom decor stuff in my cart at Amazon at the moment, waiting for it to be tomorrow for my paycheck to hit before I pull the trigger, and I’m already planning on hitting the teacher store tomorrow for a few things I’d rather pick up in person. I think this purchase will put me right around $350 for this year, and school doesn’t start for another week and a half; there will be more. I went to work today for most of the morning, moving things around and putting things together and starting to make Real Decisions for how the classroom is going to look.
Which, uh, means it’s time for my yearly request for donations. If — if — any of you happen to have some money burning a hole in your pockets and want to donate something to your absolute favorite middle school math teacher, my Amazon wish list for my classroom is here. These are all consumable supplies; pencils, Post-Its, paper, markers, crayons, and dry erase markers are all enormously appreciated and will absolutely get used.
Thank you in advance for anyone willing to donate.
We are already almost 20% of the way to our goal, and the fund raiser officially starts today! Go donate to RAICES while I’m on my way to Indianapolis! Remember, in addition to any donations from my readers, here is how this will work:
I will donate the entire proceeds of every book I sell at InConJunction this weekend, from July 5-7. Every last dime.
You are obviously welcome to do direct cash donationsthrough the donation link. That said: anyone who donates more than $25 through the link should email me and let me know, because I will send you a signed book of your choice, depending on my stock levels after the con is over. Click will be eligible for this, so if you want a print copy and don’t want to use Patreon, this is a way to get a copy.
I’ll be making my next donation on Monday or Tuesday depending on how many credit card sales I make this weekend and how long all that takes to clear. If you were thinking about participating, today’s the day. Donate!
RAICES is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit agency that promotes justice by providing free and low-cost legal services to underserved immigrant children, families, and refugees.
Founded in 1986 as the Refugee Aid Project by community activists in South Texas, RAICES has grown to be the largest immigration legal services provider in Texas. With offices in Austin, Corpus Christi, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio, RAICES is a frontline organization in the roiling debate about immigration and immigrants in the world. As an organization that combines expertise developed from the daily practice of immigration law with a deep commitment to advocacy, RAICES is unique among immigration organizations. A diverse staff of 130 attorneys, legal assistants, and support staff provide consultations, direct legal services, representation, assistance and advocacy to communities in Texas and to clients after they leave the state. In 2017, RAICES staff closed 51,000 cases at no cost to the client. Our advocacy and commitment to change are driven by the clients and families we serve every day as our attorneys and legal assistants provide legal advocacy and representation in an immigration system that breaks apart families and leaves millions without pathways to legal status.
The fundraiser is going to be open until Friday, July 12– it “officially” opens on my birthday itself but what with the convention I’m going to be kind of busy, so we’re doing a soft open today. Here’s how this is going to work:
I will donate the entire proceeds of every book I sell at InConJunction this weekend, from July 5-7. Every last dime.
Starting today, and running through midnight on the 12th, I will donate my entire share of any books I sell on Amazon. This, I’ll be honest, isn’t going to amount to a lot, even if sales spike a bit, because Amazon takes a cut of everything. But whatever my share is will be donated.
You are obviously welcome to do direct cash donationsthrough the donation link.

Obviously, sharing this far and wide will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
