Can you help us take care of the teachers who delivered groceries and necessities to their homebound students during Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis?

All of these books are on the wishlists of the amazing teachers at Bryn Mawr Elementary School — and we’d love to help get these books into their classrooms by the first day of school. We can do this!

If you live in the Twin Cities, please stop in and ask about the Teacher Love program. And if you live out of state — no worries! — just call us and we’ll help you pick some books to donate over the phone with a credit card.

We owe these teachers the world. Thank you for your help!
