Supporting Our Schools 2022: How to Donate to Support Local Teachers or Submit a Project to Be Funded

Together let’s help our teachers and students get the materials they need!

Every year, teachers in our community face the challenge of getting the materials they need for their students to succeed. 

From September 5 through September 30, we will be highlighting local projects on-air and online from DonorsChoose.org.

DonorsChoose is a platform where teachers can submit project requests for the opportunity to have them funded by the community. Requests can include school supplies, food, hygiene essentials or any items selected by teachers to help meet their students’ needs.
