The Basics Have Never Been More Vital

Date:


Giving students access to basic supplies has always been essential to teach at the top of your game. This year, it’s been harder than ever to deliver engaging instruction — and give students access to the supplies they need. 

That’s where we come in.

These are the two categories of items that teachers request the most on DonorsChoose — and donors love to support them! Whether you need a class set of glue sticks to keep everyone germ-free at school, or have students that could use a small kit of notebooks and pencils at home, this match is for you.

How It Works 

Founded in 2000 by a high school teacher in the Bronx, DonorsChoose is the leading classroom funding site for teachers. Here’s how to request items for this special match day:

  1. Register on DonorsChoose. (Already a DonorsChoose teacher? Skip to step 2.)
  2. Request the books and basics you need.
  3. Cross off “pay out of pocket for the supplies my kids need even though I am already showing up for my students in the toughest circumstances in recent memory” from your to-do list. We’ve got your back.

What to Request

DonorsChoose is your one-stop shop — through our site you can request items from over 20 vendors including AmazonBusiness, Best Buy Education, Lakeshore Learning Materials, Teachers Pay Teachers, and Staples advantage.
