EnergyTeachers.org free expertise to schools & other charities

Every year, EnergyTeachers.org (ETO) provides free expertise, ideas, reviews, and individualized consulting to schools and other charities. Usually, those organizations can't repay ETO for the hours of service, leaving us without a way to pay our employees.

Time and again, other organizations, schools, and individual educators praise our work, and repeatedly call on us for our expertise and wide base of knowledge in energy education. Such work requires financial support from the general public. Considered apart from our other functions, $5000 annually would support this function of ours. $10-$30 dollar donations from 250 supporters for this campaign would be sufficient to reach that goal.

This year, since we're starting this fundraiser November 30, we'll try to raise just $400 towards our 2010 expenses. Next year, we'll shoot for the full $5000. If there are at least 5 fundraisers started for ETO, we'll receive up to $1000 in matching grants from Razoo's supporters.
