Great idea for your school?

Hey, around a month ago, with Cole Hardware we announced a
wishlist program for schools and nonprofits. It's like a bridal
registry. Say, a teacher signs up, picks stuff out of the catalog,
and asks parents and friends to buy the stuff for their classroom.
The contributor gets a 10% discount (which allows Cole Hardware to
recover costs) and a tax deduction.

We've had over 200 schools and nonprofits sign up so far, and
well over $10 000 in contributions, mostly small ones, which is
what we hope for.

Please help us get the word out on this, since there's a lot
of people who really need a hand. The contributions can
be really small, but even so, that really helps out.

It's at http://wishlist.craigslist.org

Thanks!

Craig
