Donate your extra supplies
help local teachers and students
Does your office have surplus supplies or outdated letterhead? Teaching Tools for Hillsborough Schools, a program of the Hillsborough Education Foundation, has the answer for you! Teaching Tools operates a store for teachers at high need Title-I schools where the teachers “shop” monthly for free supplies to bring back to their classrooms and at-risk students. During the spring time, the store receives fewer donations, but the teachers and students need for supplies remains ever present to get through the rest of the school year. How you can help? Teaching Tools distributes usable business surplus from the community back into the classroom. For example, companies that are cleaning out their supply closets, closing down an office or changing their information are all great candidates to donate their surplus back into local classrooms. Examples of items donated are binders, desk ware, outdated stationery or letterhead, filing cabinets, staplers, promotional items, etc. To learn more click here or call please call Bronwyn Fowler at 813-620-2949 or e-mail bfowler@educationfoundation.com.
