Lilly Global Day of Service 2013

and Teachers Treasures…

How we helped…

Is a non-profit organization that provides teachers school supplies for their students…

These teachers work at schools whose students are at risk and 40% or more of their students receive free or reduced lunch

Help supply materials needed for the students to be successful…

Teachers Treasures…

We cleaned up the outside donation area

What we did…

We trimmed the trees..

We helped stock shelves….

We painted inside and outside…

We had a supply drive and brought our donations….

And more…

We are planning on a yearly supply drive in September. Next year, we want to invite more Lilly teams to participate in the supply drive

to increase the amount of donations. This will enable the teachers to have plenty of supplies

to give to their students…

As you can see, there is a need..

Teachers Treasures would like a technology upgrade to improve the processes of checking out the teachers’ purchases. Currently, volunteers use paper and pen to check out each teacher and the process is very time consuming.

What would Teachers Treasures do if they won some of the prize money?

Even though their rent is only $1.00 a year, they still have to pay their operating expenses. Some of the monies will be applied toward these expenses.

Sometime they are offered some wonderful supplies for free but they have to pay for the shipping and handling– these expenses can help cover these costs

Continue to clean and paint the inside of the warehouse

Improve the looks of the donation area

Other prize money wishes…

Thank you!
