Teachers know what their students need, and #TeachersCan wants to ensure they get it. #TeachersCan is partnering with DonorsChoose through a matching campaign to help companies and individuals support teachers through donations to fund classroom projects. Their goal is to raise a totally of $1.5 million to help Texas educators. 

Here’s how it works:                                                              

  1. Teachers can add their wish lists at donorschoose.org/teachers.
  2. Donors can search for topics, teachers, schools, or regions to support. (Check out donorschoose.org/TeachersCan.)
  3. Individual donors contribute to fund specific projects.
  4. #TeachersCan partners match up to $500,000 to double the impact.

#TeachersCan is asking educators to upload their wish lists by April 26—that’s today—so don’t delay!
