Arch MI Donations Purchase Wish-List Teaching Tools to Improve Education for Students in 28 ClassroomsPublic-school teachers focused on fostering a love of learning have new classroom tools - ranging from books by Dr. Seuss to computers - that they bought with donations from Arch MI, a leading provider of private mortgage insurance. The classroom contributions, which total more than $14,000, benefit students in three communities where Arch MI has offices - Greensboro, North Carolina, site of the company's headquarters; Raleigh, North Carolina; and Walnut Creek, California. Student populations at several of the schools are largely from low-income households. Arch MI's donations were made in response to requests from teachers in these communities through DonorsChoose.org, a nonprofit website that enables individuals and corporations to contribute to the funding of specific classroom projects. DonorsChoose.org lists teacher requests in communities nationwide and enables users to seek out classroom projects in a specific city, town or ZIP code. Nearly all of the teachers sent messages thanking Arch MI for the contributions, including:
