“I have been a science teacher for the last 5 years. Seeing my students' passion for science is incredibly rewarding! Our school needs additional science equipment for students to learn about the world around them. Who knows, one of them might even be the one to find a cure for cancer or other disease. Help ensure that our students have a bright future by helping us get the resources they need.”

Earn Referral Rewards for My Students. Simply Invite More Educators to ClassWish.org
Here is an Easy Way to Help My Students Receive More Resources
Bill Nigh's wish list can earn referral rewards for more resources when you use this custom link to invite educators to create wish lists on
ClassWish.org:
http://ClassWish.org/?inv=15699
Win-Win!
This is a win-win opportunity to help educators you invite, their students, Bill Nigh,
and students of Bill Nigh, all at the same time.
Four Million Opportunities to Earn Referral Rewards
Invite educators (teachers, student-teachers, administrators, librarians, coaches, school
nurses, guidance counselors, etc.), as well as PTA, PTO, and booster club leaders.
Invite these people from your school, from other schools in your community, or from
any public, private, or parochial K-12 school in the United States.
Sending Invitations is Quick and Easy
There is sample text you can use for:
- emails to educators and for PTA/PTO/booster club leaders
- Facebook posts
- Tweets
Be sure to insert Bill Nigh's custom invitation URL, which appears above, in the invitations!
You can also display a banner on your website or blog and have it point at the invitation URL. See the instructions here.
How It Works
ClassWish makes it easy:
- If educators use Bill Nigh's custom invitation link when they join ClassWish, their account will be associated with Bill Nigh's account.
- When they get donations during the first year after joining, Bill Nigh's wish list will earn referral rewards equal to 3% of those donations. (No, it does not come out of the invited teacher's donations; ClassWish’s vendor suppliers fund the referral rewards).
- The rewards will be credited to Bill Nigh's wish list as the invited educators have ClassWish use their funds to buy supplies and equipment for them.
- So if a teacher gets $1,000 in donations in the first year, the wish list for Bill Nigh earns $30. That’s pretty good for sending an email!
Be Sure to Follow Up
People typically need to see a message several times before they act on it, so be sure to check regularly if the educators you invite have created a wish list. If not, just send them a follow-up invitation (again, with our team’s custom link). Be sure to re-post invitations regularly via Facebook, Twitter, etc., too.
Inviting FIRST Robotics Teams
Please invite FIRST Robotics teams to ClassWish, too. We prepared sample text for
emails, Facebook, and twitter, which you can find here.
Invitations to FIRST teams helps students, but they do not generate referral rewards. That is because ClassWish most often distributes cash to FIRST teams and does not have the chance to earn a payment from a vendor partner, as it does with donations for other educators.
Reporting
Bill Nigh can see accepted invitations and credited referral rewards on the wish list Account page.
ClassWish Eligibility Requirements
ClassWish invites leaders of FIRST Robotics teams and also invites teachers, student teachers, substitute teachers, part-time after school teachers, staff developers, librarians, guidance counselors, school nurses, coaches, principals, administrators, other school employees directly serving students in an educational capacity, and officers acting on behalf of school Parent Teacher Association units recognized by the National Parent Teacher Association and on behalf of other parent teacher organizations (collectively, “Educators”) in K-12, public, magnet and charter schools, and private and parochial that are exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and that are in the 50 states or the District of Columbia (collectively, “Allowed Schools”) to create wish lists (“Wish Lists”) indicating the supplies and equipment they need for their students to excel and to submit requests (“Requests”) for ClassWish to provide particular items funded by contributions to such Wish Lists.

- The activities for which I intend to use any items received through ClassWish are legal and fall within the standards of my state and/or local board or department of education, and the policies of my school or, in the case of FIRST Robotics team leaders, fall within the standards of FIRST Robotics;
- All information I provide to ClassWish is accurate, and I will promptly update the information to keep it accurate;
- Any Requests I submit and any funding or items I receive are solely for use in my classroom and/or school, or in the case of FIRST Robotics team leaders are solely for use by my FIRST team, and any items I request through ClassWish will not be for my or anyone else’s personal use;
- I agree that any items provided to me by ClassWish shall become and remain the property of (i) the school to which ClassWish has them delivered, and I will not take such items to another school, or (ii) in the case of a FIRST Robotics team such items provided to me by ClassWish or purchased with funds provided to me by ClassWish shall become and remain the property of the FIRST Robotics team or, if such is dissolved, shall become the property of FIRST Robotics.
- I commit to including in my Wish Lists and Requests only items that will benefit my students’ education, including extracurricular activities, and to use any items that I receive from ClassWish only for such purposes.
- I agree that in the event that ClassWish determines that any items I received through ClassWish are not being used in accordance with these Eligibility Requirements, I will return such items to ClassWish at my expense. In the case of FIRST teams, ClassWish may rely on the determination of FIRST Robotics in this regard.
