The Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library is once again partnering with the Teacher Locker in our next Seasons of Sharing.
Library users of EVPL collected several vans full of school supplies over the last three summers!
According to their website, the Teacher Locker is a place where EVSC teachers grades Pre-K-12 can receive FREE school supplies for their classroom at no cost to the teacher. The goal is to reduce what teachers spend out of their own pockets for their classrooms.
Beginning Tuesday, July 1, and continuing through Thursday, July 31, Seasons of Sharing will be accepting donations for the Teacher Locker at all eight EVPL locations.
The Teacher Locker‘s mission is to be “a place where the community can come together to provide free classroom supplies in order to support teaching, promote student achievement and drive school success.”
