If you’re a Verizon Up member, you get $10 to support a teacher near you—a promotion that’s good through the end of the month. To use it, go to your Verizon Up app and find the offer. Click “Use now” on the page to get your specific coupon code.
Once you have it, go to the Donors Choose website and find a project, teacher, or school you’d like to support. Enter $10 as the donation amount for the project (or more, if you’d like) and press the give button.
On the checkout page, you’ll see a link to “Apply a gift or promo code.” Tap that and enter your code from the Verizon Up app in order to remove the $10 charge. You can also add the gift card to your account on this page specifically for the promotion.
Finish the checkout process, and you’re done.
If you have one of these codes, it’s especially good if you use it today: The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is matching 50% of donations, so that $10 contribution will actually be worth $15.
