Description
As teachers in the Washington Elementary School District and Deer Valley Unified District return to in-person teaching this year, we want to encourage our educators, staff, and social workers to finish 4th Quarter Strong! The work they have done this year in the face of trials, matters, and we believe our support will offer hope and healing to an unpredictable time.
Help a Teacher
This semester we are making an effort to support our local teachers and want to connect you as a partner to give in an intentional and direct way. Your support to teachers is valuable and appreciated, and there are a few ways you can do this! Get involved in one of two ways:
Encourage
Share a story about a teacher who has made an impact in your life and encourage them to continue to be that type of influence in their classrooms.
Donate
Adopt a Teacher’s Needs
Teachers are currently in need of supplies for the classroom as they transition back to in-person learning. Many have used their funds to purchase items to assist in virtual learning, and now need to switch gears with new tools for the classroom.
Funding
Funds help us continue to give to our teachers in an intentional way such as appreciation gifts, *Covid Comfort Kits, and grocery gift cards for families who have lost a parent/guardian.
*A Covid Comfort Kit is a gift of compassionate items for a student who has lost a family member due to Covid-19. Items include blanket, stuffed animal, journal, book, and grocery gift cards in the instance of loss of a parent/guardian.
Select “Love Our Schools”
Donate Stuffed Animals
Your donation of a stuffed animal will be included in a *Covid Comfort Kit. Stuffed animals are a reminder of someone who cares for them and a source of comfort during loss.
Donations can be delivered to the CalvaryPHX office M-Th 9am – 4pm, or during service times.
