Helping A School Who Lost Everything

Have you ever woken up from a dream and felt like you had lost your most precious things to a fire? I have had that dream many times. Fortunately it has never happened to me. But there is a school in Texas that has. When I think about the school materials that are in my room, I realize that I have a lot of stuff. But then I take it a bit more personally and think about all the other things in my room that I have put my heart and soul into. I would be crushed if I lost it all. Please read the following that was posted by Marcy at Saddle Up for Second Grade. She has helped to organize a fundraiser to give back to this school who has nothing.  Please read it and see if you could buy one of these packs. And then could you do one more thing please? Could you share it with your staff members or your own blog? This store will be live for the entire month of November. Any help that you can give will be appreciated.


On Sunday, September 21st, the only elementary school in Post, Texas caught fire and burned for several hours. Two grade levels have lost everything.   More grades have suffered severe smoke and water damage to their classrooms. Like most small, rural towns in West Texas, the school in Post is the heart of the town. The majority of community activities revolve around the local schools. 

To show our love and support for Post Elementary, caring bloggers and TPT sellers have graciously donated products for fundraiser bundles! Let’s show our love and support for our fellow teachers that are rebuilding their classrooms and teaching their children.  Products in the bundles are worth over $200! TPT sellers that have graciously donated products. All of the bundles will be available for the entire month of November. All of the proceeds will go to the Post Elementary teachers to help them rebuild their classrooms. The bundles include the following:
