Well, for what it's worth, in Texas our TIF (Technology Infrastructure Fund)
receives my monthly "donation" each time I pay our cellular phone bill.
It's clearly stated right there on the bill. The TIF money will be paid
out via grants to schools needing hardware and software -- I'm not sure
about staff development, but probably that, too.
