It takes a Village.

Every day, teachers try to figure out how to purchase classroom supplies they need. We make sure they don’t have to.


Our Impact.

Village has provided classroom supplies across 42 states and 104 schools. These supplies have impacted over 26,718 students.


What teachers have told us.

“Thank you for giving my students the instrument care supplies they need to keep learning, growing, and performing with confidence. Items like reeds, valve oil, cork grease, and cleaning supplies may seem small, but they play a huge role in helping students succeed and ensuring their instruments stay in great playing condition. Knowing that people they have never met believe in them is a powerful lesson in itself.

— Mr. Cook (Middle School Band Director) from Sulphur, Louisiana


"Math comes alive when students can see, touch, and explore concepts with their own hands. In our classroom, hands-on math manipulatives will provide students with meaningful opportunities to build a deeper understanding of important mathematical concepts such as place value, fractions, geometry, multiplication, division, and problem-solving. ”

— Ms. Allen (First Grade Teacher) from Port Saint Lucie, Florida


"My students play soccer every day at recess, but unfortunately we do not have soccer goals. Due to the age and high usage of the equipment, our previous goals were destroyed. This new equipment can be stored safely, which will increase its lifespan. This equipment is not just wanted; it is needed and will be used daily!

— Mr. Harris (High School PE Coach) from Dallas, Texas


How it works.

1. Donors make a pledge to contribute $5 weekly.

2. Village purchases classroom supplies requested by teachers on platforms like DonorsChoose.

3. Teachers document the impact, and donors receive a weekly summary report.

4. On average, Village can reach over 800 students with a donor’s pledge over one year.


Why Village.

When teachers across America make requests for basic classroom supplies on platforms like DonorsChoose, there is no guarantee their requests will be met.

We focus on requests that are about to expire and requests that are partially funded.

By getting requests across the finish line, we make our donors' contributions go even further


What donors have told us.

  • “As a former teacher, Village is something I wish had existed when I was in the classroom. It’s nice to be able to pay it forward and make sure the next generation of teachers have the supplies they need to teach, and students have what they need to learn."

    —Jennifer G. from Snohomish, Washington

  • "My husband and I have always appreciated how hard teachers work to educate our kids. Being able to see which classrooms our contribution helped fund makes our giving feel even more direct and we enjoy seeing the variety of projects Village completes."

    — Grace F. from Manhattan, New York

  • "As a college student I don't have a lot to give, but Village helps me feel like even a small weekly donation can make a difference. Knowing that my contribution goes directly to fully funding a teacher's request, not just chipping away at it, is really meaningful."

    —Mark L. from Irvine, California
