Back-to-School Classroom Supplies Collection

At the beginning of every school year, teachers face the challenge of filling their classroom with all the school supplies their students need to thrive. To fill the gap, teachers often pay from their own pocket or depend on donations from students and their families. This school year, WasteNot is partnering with The Parlor to give teachers a leg up. From July 31st - August 13th, 2026, WasteNot members can place one (1) bag of accepted classroom supplies alongside their WasteNot bucket. Our team will collect and deliver your donations directly to The Parlor, a project of Trash People. The supplies will be distributed for free to teachers at The Parlor on August 15th as part of their Teacher Supply Fair.
