Supporting Teachers
We provide educators in the Greater Kansas City metro with free classroom supplies to help them create well-stocked, inspiring learning environments. By reducing out-of-pocket expenses, we empower teachers to focus on what matters most—supporting their students’ success.
Kids in Need
We are proud to support children and youth experiencing extreme poverty and homelessness through our Teacher Resource Center. By partnering with educators, we provide essential items like food, toiletries, feminine hygiene products, and clothing—ensuring students have the basic necessities they need to feel safe, supported, and ready to learn
Equity in Education
Every teacher and student deserves access to the supplies and resources they need to succeed—regardless of income or background. We’re committed to leveling the playing field by providing free materials that support teaching, learning, and dignity in every classroom.
