Teacher Appreciation Week is a great time to fundraise for your classroom. Education is already on folks’ minds, so we’re helping you share your classroom needs with donors who want to show their appreciation.
We’re hosting a $20,000 Teacher Appreciation Day Donation Match on May 6, 2025. From 9 a.m. ET to 9 p.m. ET, all donations to teachers’ classroom pages on AdoptAClassroom.org will be doubled until we hit our matching goal of $20,000.
We will update this blog page when the matching funds run out.
How To Get Double Donations:
If you’re already registered with AdoptAClassroom.org, log in and update your classroom page so it’s ready to share when the match begins. This video tutorial shows you how.
Not registered with AdoptAClassroom.org yet? Register and create a classroom page before we start matching donations. This video tutorial walks you through the process in under five minutes.
Remember to start sharing your AdoptAClassroom.org link as soon as our match begins for the best chances of getting donations matched.
