Back to School Teacher Kits Fundraiser
By Richard Woods Georgia State School Superintendent
Press Release
Dear supporters of Georgia public education,
I am writing today to ask for your assistance in supporting Georgia’s teachers and students. The Georgia Foundation for Public Education (GFPE) is raising funds for Back-to-School Teacher Kits full of classroom supplies that will be donated directly to Georgia teachers. GFPE has partnered with WSB-TV Family 2 Family Project to raise $25,000 toward the kits, which will include everything from notebooks, folders, and pencils to hand sanitizer and Ziploc bags.
We know this is an area of need in our public schools, and your donation can give an entire class of students a successful start to their year of learning. Our teachers often provide students with the supplies they need to learn, and you can help offset that cost with a simple donation.
To donate online to support this effort, click here and enter B2S in the field that reads “please designate this donation to the following project.” Submit your donation before the July 22 deadline.
My deepest thanks for your support of Georgia’s public schools and students. Should you have any questions, please contact Meghan Frick at mfrick@doe.k12.ga.us or Paige Pushkin at ppushkin@doe.k12.ga.us.
