REFI Teacher Supply Depot

Are your storage shelves full, is that supply room jammed packed with "stuff"? Are there items you don't want but hate to throw away? Then there is an answer as close as the telephone. Rockingham County Public Schools is partnering with the Rockingham Educational Foundation, Inc. to create the Teacher Supply Depot. These items that you no longer want may be valuable to schools and greatly appreciated by classroom teachers and their students. It is amazing the variety of use teachers can find for items you may think of no value. They are creative!

Your business may throw out or store forever items that could be reused in the classroom to improve student achievement. The donations may be office products, obsolete inventory, old logo products, left over promotional materials, rejects or over runs, interesting packing materials, computers, furniture, etc. These donations may be tax deductible and possibly save your company disposal fees.

We invite your company's participation in this project. Office supplies are always in demand, but throwaway items such as wire carpet squares, wallpaper books, fabric scraps also can be transformed into valuable teaching tools.

Please email, fax, or telephone regarding your interest in participating in this project. Email to dharper@rockingham.k12.va.us or FAX to (540) 564-0633 or telephone to (540) 564-3218. These contacts will also be able to answer your questions.
