Nominate a Teacher for a School Supplies Gift Card

Seattle law firm Davis Law Group is offering teachers $100 gift cards from Office Max to defray out-of-pocket classroom costs.

A whopping 97% of public school teachers frequently dip into their own pockets to purchase necessary classroom supplies. The poor economy and shriveled budgets have pushed officials to make cuts that are so deep that teachers are spending more of their own money with hopes that their students won't feel the pinch. They are spending their own money on software, educational games, paper, crayons, pencils, glue and other similar materials. And some are purchasing supplies for those students that just can't afford to buy the basics.

When attorney Chris Davis and his wife heard these shocking statistics they knew that they had to help. They created the Davis Law Group School Supplies Gift Program to help teachers in Washington State Public Schools get the supplies that they need.
