Schools and PTAs
A wishlist for every teacher.
Teachers spend their own money on supplies because asking is awkward and tracking is worse. Give each classroom a wishlist families can pledge from, and see exactly what arrived.

What if every teacher had a list families could fill?
Invite teachers to Donorly and give each classroom its own wishlist and public page. Teachers can see each other's lists, so the whole school can see what's still needed.
- Families pledge an item and pick a drop-off time at school. Teachers' home addresses stay private.
- Pledged and received are tracked separately, so nobody ends up with forty boxes of tissues.
- Families get a receipt by email for what they gave.
- Lists and pages work in English and Spanish, plus Punjabi and Vietnamese.
