SlipNOT Donates $5,000 to Purchase School Supplies for Students Nationwide

DETROIT - (BUSINESS WIRE) - SlipNOT Metal Safety Flooring made a donation of $5,000 to support schools locally and throughout the country this past month. SlipNOT's donation impacted almost 2,000 students at 16 different schools, supplying them with necessary classroom materials through DonorsChoose.org.

DonorsChoose.org is an online organization that allows teachers to post projects asking for monetary donations for their classroom's needs. What started as a small idea quickly expanded into a nonprofit organization serving K-12 public and charter schools in all 50 states. Now, with hundreds of teachers utilizing DonorsChoose.org, student's needs are being fulfilled and classrooms are being stocked with critical and innovative learning materials.

SlipNOT contributed to 16 projects, which helped students with disabilities, under-privileged girls, and many more. SlipNOT helped a teacher in Springfield, MA reach her goal of raising money for privacy boards and math cubes for her tiny classroom that was destroyed by a tornado two years ago. Along with crucial math resources lost in the tornado, the classroom is too small for her students to be educated correctly.
