Today is #GivingTuesday, a time-honored tradition handed down from parent to child since it was invented ten minutes ago. And in the spirit of giving, I have a favor to ask.

My sister-in-law, an elementary school librarian, needs funds to equip her maker space with educational tools to help young minds grow. Otherwise, they’ll be nothing but birdbrains, scrounging for tips like our friend here.

To raise the funds, she’s using DonorsChoose, which is like a Kickstarter for educators. Visit her page for the complete details, and chip in what you can. Thank you.

And thanks for the video to giver-inner Alison, who shot this on “our trip to Bearizona in Williams, AZ. They have rescued and rehabilitated birds trained to take your donations. Genius.”
