In celebration of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, Oliver + S is joining with Donors Choose<\/a> to help support needy classrooms across the United States.<\/p>\n

Here’s how you can help. Buy one or more Oliver + S patterns at retail price from our website between now and November 24, 2010, and we will donate 15% of the total purchase price (excluding shipping and tax) to a classroom in your state.<\/p>\n

\"Donors<\/a><\/p>\n

At the end of the week, we will calculate total sales by state and will make a donation to one Donors Choose project in each state where orders were shipped. All orders shipping outside the United States will support one or more classes in the New York City Public Schools, the home school district for Oliver + S.<\/p>\n

Help us help teachers in underprivileged schools provide new and enriching learning experiences for their students by making your purchase today.<\/p>\n

Please share this offer with friends and family who may be interested. And, if you make a purchase, feel free to leave a link to a Donors Choose project in your state as a comment on this post. We can’t guarantee that each will be funded, but your recommendations will provide us with a place to start when it comes time to make the donations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
