7. Click the green "Save and Continue" button ✅

8. Select a vendor for items you want for your classroom (you can combine more than one vendor into a single project).
9. Another window will open. Shop 🛒🛍️ just like you would normally. Keep your total around $200-300 (smaller project = better chance of funding).

10. Go through the checkout process on the vendor’s website, this will send your cart to @DonorsChoose ➡️🛒
11. The vendor website will close and you will be back on @DonorsChoose. You should see your items that you had in your shopping cart in a list.

12. Write a one sentence summary of what you are requesting. You will add a more detailed description later.
13. Continue through the project submission process. Follow the directions to describe your project and how it will impact your students. 👨‍🎓👩‍🎓
