Thank you for donating and helping to support teachers and students with the resources they need to succeed.
You know that feeling we get when the internet goes down, when we get the red X in encompass, when we forget our laptop? Until it is fixed, it is the only thing we think about because they are all necessities to us meeting our goals, to being successful.
Now imagine, your laptop is a writing utensil, a notebook, a folder. 1 in 2 local students go to school empty handed, meaning they start each school day knowing that they do not have the tools that they need to be successful.
Please join us in supplying local teachers and students with the tools they need so that they are able to think about kid things, like how many days until summer break :)
Join Classroom Central and WSOC-TV for the Classroom Central 9 School Tools, the Carolinas’ largest school supply fundraiser. Without basic supplies like pencils and books, children living in poverty face greater barriers to learning than their classmates. Hosting a drive or contributing to one can ensure Classroom Central is equipped to continue providing FREE supplies, helping break the generational poverty cycle. Your generosity benefits over 162,000 eligible students. Your donations foster equity in education by providing the necessary tools for success.
162,000+ local students need = 1,000,000 school supplies needed!
Through our partnerships, each $1 donated becomes $9 worth of distributed supplies for students in our community. Your support and collections during the Classroom Central 9 School Tools campaign give students the supplies they need for a successful school year.
