Teacher Supply Warehouse

• GCS teachers shop for items at no cost up to four times in a school year.
• Only one shopping visit is allowed in a given month.
• At each visit, GCS teachers are given a budget of points to use on high-demand items like paper, notebooks and crayons. In addition, teachers may take what they need from the “free” area in the Warehouse, which is stocked with a wide variety of new and gently used items.
• Due to space and resource limitations, the Warehouse does not serve charter schools, private schools, home schools or Guilford County residents who teach in other school districts.

• Host: Host a supply drive at your business, church, civic club, book club—any place you’d like! Email us to learn more.
• Donate: Donate money, new supplies or gently used items. Monetary donations allow GEA to purchase our most needed supplies. Donated items can dropped off at GEA from 9 a.m.–5 p.m., Monday–Thursday. If you have it, we guarantee a GCS teacher can use it! To make an online donation, click here.
• Volunteer: We need you! Sorting items or helping teachers shop are just two of the ways you or your group can volunteer. To view our current volunteer needs and to sign up to help, click here.
