What is “Clear the List”? It’s a nationwide movement to support teachers by purchasing items for their school supply lists.

School will be back in session soon (some districts start in just a couple of weeks!), and teachers are already working hard to prepare their classrooms for the new 2025-2026 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for the majority of classroom supplies out of their own pockets? Yes, it’s true! Classroom supplies are not cheap, and many school districts and families are struggling. This leaves many teachers to pay for school supplies out of their own pockets.

Teachers always go the extra mile for their students, so let’s show them how much we appreciate them by giving back and helping to fulfill their supply lists!

You can help by donating items from teachers’ Amazon shopping lists!

Teachers and educational professionals can head over to Amazon, create a classroom wish list, and then share their lists publicly. Anyone can ‘donate’ items that are on the list, and after donating, donors can even leave a note or message letting the teacher know how much they are appreciated. So awesome!

Even better, if you post your list on social media and tag Amazon with #clearthelist, you may find that your list is cleared BY Amazon! So cool!

Teachers, follow these steps to make your classroom wish list on Amazon:

  • Head over to Amazon and hover over Account & List at the top. Select ‘Create a List’ from the drop-down menu and name your list.
  • Hover over the three dots More menu on the right, and click Manage List to update your shipping address (this is important!) and other preferences like whether you want the list to be private or public. You can also designate whether your list is for an organization, and if so, you’ll have the option to provide the website address of the organization.
  • Click ‘Save’ and then you can start adding items to your list!
  • To add items to your wish list, simply browse for products on Amazon and then click ‘Add to List’ under the Buy box on the right-hand side of any item’s product detail page.
  • Only list owners can make changes through Manage List. Both list owners and collaborators will be able to add and remove items.

If you’re a teacher, be sure to share your teacher list in the comments below so that readers can help clear the list! 🙌

Plus, treat yourself to something special with these teacher discounts!

    Middle school (6th-8th) music teacher from North Carolina! This will be my 8th year! We are very excited for the upcoming new year! “Music for All” is our focus and we are excited to provide our students with a well rounded music education. Our school supports the arts and believes it helps to build our students character and encourage them to have a well rounded education! Any help with supplies and things to help our classroom thrive would be appreciated! Thank you for your support. Best wishes to everyone this upcoming school year! https://a.co/gRB0sNP

    I am a 1st grade teacher in a title1 school in the Bronx. A lot of my students can not afford supplies so I end up spending a lot of own money to help these children have the supplies they need!! I want to make this year as special as possible for them! Thanks for helping to support my class! ❤️

    Hello! I’m a 3rd grade teacher from Pennsylvania and I would appreciate any help in clearing my list. We put so much of our own money back into our classrooms because of how much we love our students that every little bit helps. Thank you for considering!

    Hi! I teach reading intervention for students in Kinder up to 5th grade. I usually have 10-12 students per grade level, so I see about 55 of our neediest students back to back every day! I love these kids and want them to have a great and enriching experience when they come to work with me. We are in a Title 1 school, and about 20% of our kiddos are homeless or double/tripled up in their living spaces. I try to motivate them intrinsically, and we do daily growth mindset activities. But sometimes nothing beats a sticker, a reward, or other treat. Here is my Amazon Wishlist if you’re so inclined to check it out! Thank you!

    Thank you for supporting educators! I teach 8th grade science at a title 1 school in Wichita, KS. This will be my 27th year. Things break, get lost, wear out, and need replaced. I never tell a hungry kid no when they ask for a snack. Any help is appreciated! #ClearTheList

    I am looking for donations for my Middle School Life Skills class, located outside of Philadelphia. We are looking for supplies to help increase my students’ reading comprehension, help to manage their sensory input, and increase their social emotional regulation. In addition, we are looking for craft supplies that my students can use to work on their vocational skills, while selling the items to raise money to support our community based instruction. Thank you for your consideration and support!

    Hey there! I’m a third-year elementary art teacher who LOVES sparking imagination in my students—and honestly, we could really use a few extra supplies to bring our creative projects to life. If you’d like to check out my Amazon wishlist, I’ve stocked it with things like colorful paper, paint brushes, and fun bits for mixed media. No pressure—any little thing helps us get crafty and inspired. Thanks a bunch for helping our classroom shine! 😊
