The following sites are for classroom donations.

  • Links
  • Donors Choose Donors Choose
    DonorsChoose.org is a simple way to provide students in need with resources that our public schools often lack. At this not-for-profit web site, teachers submit project proposals for materials or experiences their students need to learn. These ideas become classroom reality when concerned individuals, whom we call Citizen Philanthropists, choose projects to fund.
  • Adopt a Classroom Adopt a Classroom
    Adopt-A-Classroom invites the community into the classroom  in support of teachers and their students. By adopting a classroom, donors form partnerships with specific classrooms providing financial and moral support. The result is a meaningful contribution to education in which donors experience the impact of their efforts and celebrate in a classroom's success.
  • Materials for the Arts Materials for the Arts
    Materials for the Arts, NYC helps artists realize their visions, provides students with a richer educational experience, and furnishes businesses with a simple and efficient way to enhance the cultural life of their city while promoting environmental awareness and reuse.
  • Project Cicero Project Cicero
    Project Cicero's primary goal is to supplement or create classroom libraries for children in under-resourced New York City public schools through an annual citywide book drive. In addition, Project Cicero seeks to get books into homeless shelters, juvenile detention facilities, community centers, and pediatric hospital units – wherever there’s a need.
  • The Pencil Box The Pencil Box
    The PENCIL Box is an easy way for you to enhance the learning environment of students in New York City public schools. Any company or individual with gently used furniture, equipment or other quality goods to donate can list these items on the PENCIL Box website where a deserving school can access these donations directly. Books, musical instruments, computers, furniture, science equipment, and art supplies are among the resources frequently in demand.

If you have suggestions for additional resources, e-mail Teachers@schools.nyc.gov.
