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!

    Because North Carolina invests so little in its students and teachers, your support becomes a powerful force for change! Thank you!

    Hi thank you for supporting teachers. I teach 1st grade 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! ❤️

    Support a Second Grade Classroom in Puerto Rico 📚💛

    Hi friends and supporters!
    I’m a second grade teacher at a public school in Puerto Rico, where we work hard every day to provide our students with the best education possible—despite limited resources. Unfortunately, our school lacks many basic supplies that are essential for a productive and engaging classroom environment.

    Any contribution—big or small—will make a meaningful difference in their daily experience and education.

    Hi everyone! My name is Christina. I’m a high school social studies teacher in NYC trying to #clearthelist of basic learning supplies, Grab What You Need items, and snacks and drinks for our Snack Shack. For transparency, we do sell the snacks at the Snack Shack during lunch to help raise money for Senior activities, school trips, college trips, and for our arts department. We are seeking donations to help start the year off. We do also give these snacks away to students who need them during class time or for trips.

    ✨ Support Our Midwood, Brooklyn Classroom ✨
    My middle school students deserve the tools they need to succeed, and every item on this list will go directly toward their learning. As a Title I school in Midwood, Brooklyn, many of my students rely on donated supplies to make the most of their education.

    If you’re able, please check out our Amazon Wish List and consider contributing—every little bit makes a big difference! 📝📚🎨

    💛 Thank you so much for supporting our kids and their future.

    Hi! I’m an educator of 14 years and this upcoming year I’m teaching 2nd grade for the first time. I’ve taught K and 1st previously. Anything helps for this new beginning. Thank you!

    Hi Everyone! This will be my first year teaching kindergarten. I’m using this summer to gather and create all of the fun and colorful things I need to make my classroom the most welcoming, fun, and safe learning environment possible for these kiddos. I’d appreciate any support to make this happen. Thank you! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/IYRUI123G7C5?ref_=wl_share

    I teach amazing preschoolers with autism and other disabilities, many of whom are nonverbal. My days are filled with sensory bins, visual schedules, happy dances, tiny victories, and becoming an expert at understanding what someone means with just a smile, a point, or a determined look.

    My classroom runs on coffee, Velcro, laminating sheets, and celebrating every milestone—no matter how small. If you’d like to help our little learners, anything from this wish list is greatly appreciated

    As I prepare for another school year, I’m getting my 2nd grade classroom ready for a wonderful group of students with many different learning needs. I want to create a classroom where every child feels welcomed, supported, and excited to learn.

    If you’d like to help, I’ve put together an Amazon Teacher Wishlist with supplies that will make a meaningful difference in our classroom. Every gift—no matter the size—is a blessing and is truly appreciated.

    Thank you for supporting my students, my classroom, and public education. Your kindness helps provide opportunities for these amazing kids, and I am so grateful. ❤️😊
