Teachers' Supply Closet is looking for strong individuals to help in our warehouse. We receive pallets of donated school supplies on an ongoing basis. We need people who are able to offload and arrange the pallets for easy access. Volunteers will also be responsible for moving necessary items from the warehouse into the "retail" area, where teachers will choose FREE supplies to take back to their classrooms. Individuals will need to be able to lift between 10 - 25 lbs. You choose your hours, all week days, no weekends. Must be available for training/orientation on Wednesday mornings.

Mission Statement
Our Mission is to serve children in the tri-county area in metting their educational and creative needs by providing free supplies donated by businesses and individuals.
Description
Teachers’ Supply Closet (TSC) provided 25,725 children from low-income families with free school supplies in 2015. This helps students succeed in school and eliminates the need for teachers to pay for the products. School supplies include Composition Notebooks (regular and primary rule), Copy Paper, Crayons (24 pack), Folders, Glue Sticks, Washable Markers, Hygiene Products (Tissues and Hand Sanitizer), No. 2 Pencils, Pink Erasers, and Scissors. Donations come from local product drives, and, because TSC is an affiliate of the national Kids In Need Foundation, other items arrive via transport truck. TSC pays for the shipping and uses volunteers to unload the trucks and display the supplies in its 2,850 square foot "store", in which teachers "shop" for free.
