On Tuesday, May 29, Total Divorce matched all donations made during the first day of Blog Catalog's revolutionary effort to use social media to raise funds for charity. Total Divorce provides consumer information about all phases of the divorce process, including child support information, child custody information, property division laws in each state, and more at TotalDivorce.com. As of Tuesday evening, the Blog Catalog challenge at Donors Choose had already benefitted 884 students and provided more than 2,000 hours of instruction and homework materials, and the challenge isn't over yet.

(PRWEB) May 31, 2007 -- On Tuesday, Total Divorce joined in Blog Catalog's groundbreaking effort to raise funds for schoolchildren across the country through blogging and social media. Hundreds of bloggers posted calls for donations to Donors Choose, an organization that allows public school teachers to submit proposals for supplies, special projects, field trips, and teaching materials their budgets can't support.

As of Tuesday evening, the Blog Catalog challenge had reached 884 students at various schools across the country and provided 2,373 hours of instruction and homework material, according to Donor's Choose. The Total Divorce contribution closed out one teacher's proposal and brought another proposal to 98% completion, but there are still many valuable projects to be funded. Updated information about the challenge and the number of children we've been able to help will be posted on The Divorce Blog as it becomes available.

The Blog Catalog Donors Choose challenge is believed to be the first coordinated effort to use social media to raise funds for charity.
