Join Repair The World: Baltimore during the Teacher Supply Swap’s open hours on Saturday, July 28th from 11am-2pm to organize incoming supplies, work the checkout counter, and answer any questions shoppers may have to prepare everyone for school starting up in August!
Teachers are often expected to decorate and supply their classrooms with top notch materials so that students are engaged in class – but these materials can get pricey! That’s why the Baltimore Teacher Supply Swap aims to equip teachers and families with educational supplies by repurposing supplies that others no longer need. Every year, teachers and families spend a significant amount of money on supplies to help students learn. Meanwhile, stockpiles of perfectly good supplies get thrown away or go to waste when they’re no longer needed. The Teacher Supply Swap reduces the financial burden on teachers and families by re-directing unwanted supplies into their hands.
