August was an incredible month for our teacher shoppers!
With 4 weeks of regular shopping and two Saturday shopping dates--including a special event with the Majestic Car Club Cruise-In--we were able to distribute over $1 million of school supplies. We are so excited about the impact this has made as teachers and students returned to their classrooms to kick-off the 2015-2016 school year.
Megan Ewing, an Earth/Space science teacher from Warren Township, shared this wonderful message with us about how Teachers' Treasures has been able to make a difference in her classroom so far:
"I was in today for just my second visit. I just can't thank you and the sponsors enough for the impact you are making! Just yesterday one of my young ladies came up and asked if I had an extra notebook she could have and thanks to you I was able to supply her with one! I had a special request for a new chair and you all were able to make that dream come true too (you can see the old one was quite lacking and now I have a Cadillac)! I have attached a couple of pictures from today. Thanks again for all you do for our students and teachers!!"
