Every donor to First Place is a little different. Retired teachers like to help out the classrooms, Girl Scout Troops often hold a hygiene donation drive – but when offices call us we often ask “Will you donate paper?”
In our school building, copy paper is one of our largest expenses – but we can only cut back so much without interfering with learning in the classroom.
Last January, Integral Consulting in Pioneer Square did just that. They donated over a dozen cases of paper so our teachers could make sure their lesson plans stayed on track!
One case of Office Depot Brand Copy Paper costs $35.99. A donation of 5 cases of paper would enable us to put about $180 towards our programs.
What are some of our other office supply needs?
- White Board Markers and erasers
- Paper shredder
- A-Z File sorter
- Recordable CDs or DVDs for class projects
- Extension Cords (grounded, 3-prong)
- 9 x 12 Mailing Envelopes
- File folders
