Smart List: 20 Cool Sites in Pairs

Getting Smart is acknowledging people and organizations making a difference with a series of back to school top 10 lists. We couldn’t fit everyone in August, so we will spotlight about 500 people and organizations–not in order, not exhaustive, just people we appreciate in September, too.

Today we’re wrapping our recognitions with 20 pairs that just didn’t fit on other lists but included organizations doing great work.
