With Robin having come from a large family of teachers, counselors and Hampton City School employees we know the struggles that those from the school system endure and are sensitive to it.

It’s not often that we ask for monetary support from our friends and family but we recently learned of this cause and it really touched home with us. With Robin having come from a large family of teachers, counselors and Hampton City School employees we know the struggles that those from the school system endure and are sensitive to it. DonorsChoose.org is an online charity connecting individuals, like you, to classrooms in need. The average public school teacher spends $500 - $700 on classroom supplies out of his/her own pocket, and students still go without critical supplies they need to learn. So this website is great, because teachers can post requests, like books, microscopes, art supplies, even field trips to the zoo, and you can help fund them AND they are all local schools that we are familiar with. What better way to give right back to our community and those who are most in need, the children of our community… and in some cases our own children. This tool can not only help fund specific needs and projects that YOU choose to donate to but also has the potential to help shape budgets using the data provided. If a significant rise in requests from teachers in our area are for technology, shouldn’t that be a consideration during the next budgeting process? Please click on “help this giving page”, then check out the about section for more information on how it all works or simply start giving to the local educational needs you see on the page. Thanks in advance! hide
