And please, if you need quick funds, consider the options available to you at Quick Funding Ideas  Side note: My son runs track and cross country.  The team has several items they need to pay for during the year.  I suggested we, the parents, do an online magazine sale.  They liked the idea and we're doing great.  And I must say, the campaign has been pretty easy to do.

Have a good Friday...and a relaxing weekend.

Thank you,

      Joe,
      I am new at blogs and I need help. I am a teacher and the school I will be teaching in this fall has a lab that is truly outdated. There has been no improvement in the chemistry lab in 30 years. Students do not even go into the lab. I do not know how you can teach chemistry and physics without a lab. I really need help in finding funding to fix the lab. There is neve eoungh money to get that done. Can you or anyone else help. Thanks in advance,
      Sandra

        Send me some more info.  What state? City?  Public school I assume?  Have you figured out what you need and how much funding is required?

        Let me know.

        Thank you,
        Joe
