Support Gilbert’s Teachers by Helping Us Stock Their Classrooms!

Gilbert, Ariz.- Teachers throughout Gilbert are preparing to welcome students into their classrooms, bringing renewed energy and a shared passion for educating young learners. Each year, teachers generously spend over $500 of their own money on supplies and essentials to create a welcoming and effective learning environment for the new school year.

Join us and For Our Town Gilbert, for our annual Teacher Supply Drive, a wonderful opportunity to give back to our hardworking teachers so they can kick off the year feeling confident.

Help us support our local teachers in providing essential school supplies to children in need. Your generous contribution will go directly to classrooms in the Gilbert and Higley Elementary School Districts, ensuring every student has the tools to succeed. We're happy to accept donations now through August 21.
