We've received a few questions about matching gifts towards our K.I.N.D. campaign in the old Last Word mailbag. All of your donations go to purchasing desks for needy school children in Malawi. Now, you can double the impact of your contribution through UNICEF's employer matching program. Visit matchinggifts.com/unicefusa to find out how and your workplace can participate.

Visit LastWordDesks.msnbc.com or unicefusa.org/kind to donate a desk to a child online and learn more about K.I.N.D. You can also make contributions over the phone by calling 1-800-4-UNICEF.

This is such a worthy cause - desks for students !! Two, maybe three kids can sit

and work at a desk, instead of sitting on the floor. Desks are constructed by

local workers, using local products, providing income for Malawi folks, cutting

out shipping costs and lowering carbon footprint !! Please consider this UNICEF project

when wishing to celebrate or honor a friend or an achievement.
