πŸ“’ Bonus Activation Notice:


To activate the end-of-year bonus, there must be at least 20 unique teachers signed up and actively participating(receiving at least one support gift or nomination).

This ensures the bonus is meaningful and fair for everyone involved. If the minimum isn’t met, the bonus may be postponed or adjusted β€” but we’ll always do our best to reward the teachers who show up and make an impact!

The Bonus Pool is our way of giving back to the most appreciated teachers β€” not based on dollars, but on how many people show love with a tip. Every tip = 1 entry for the teacher. And at the end of the year, we give away real cash prizes!

πŸŽ‰ Bonus Pool – Big Wins for Big Impact!

πŸ’° 2025 BONUS POOL ANNOUNCEMENT

πŸŽ‰ This year’s bonus pool is personally funded with $1,000 β€” guaranteed.

I’ll be matching every dollar the site brings in from raffle tickets and support fees, until we hit $1,000.

If we don’t hit that by December, I’ll cover the rest myself β€” because teachers deserve to be seen and celebrated.

This is just the beginning. Let's make it grow.

πŸ’‘ How It Works:

Each support gift or donation = 1 automatic raffle entry for the teacher (regardless of amount).

Teachers don’t need to do anything extra β€” they’re entered automatically.

The more individual supporters you have, the better your chances!
