Adam Lambert Teams Up With DonorsChoose.org to Support Public School Classrooms in Need

Adam Lambert, "American Idol's" eighth season runner-up, will support high-need public school classrooms on DonorsChoose.org at www.donorschoose.org/AdamLambert

"My fans have been so amazing in their support that I would love for them to contribute to something I believe in," said Adam Lambert. "Every kid deserves a great education and access to the materials and experiences that make it possible. I'm so thrilled to team up with DonorsChoose.org and encourage my fans to support arts and music projects in classrooms."

Across the country, thousands of classrooms lack the materials that are essential for learning. As school budgets tighten, learning supplies and tools become increasingly outdated, broken and scarce. School teachers nationwide spend $1 billion out-of-pocket each year, which rarely even covers each classroom's needs.

"Adam is championing a campaign for public education that will positively affect thousands of students and teachers, and we couldn't be more appreciative to have his support," said Charles Best, founder and CEO, DonorsChoose.org. "So many students have a tremendous disadvantage simply because they don't have the learning materials they need. Luckily, people like Adam and tens of thousands of everyday citizens are stepping in to help."
