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 2024-2025 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for a 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 themselves.

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!

    This is my 26th year teaching for my school district. I’m a single mom, and I appreciate any help. My classroom includes students in 2nd – 5th grades who are new to the United States. I teach them to read, write, and speak English as well as all the other subjects. I’m looking forward to another great year in a new school.

    This will be my second year teaching. I teach 5th -8th grade social studies (8th-grade homeroom teacher). Our school recently encountered budget cuts so many of the basic supplies that the school usually provides will not be provided this year. I get to serve my Latino and African American community and appreciate you helping me make a safe and inviting environment for them!

    I teach 7th grade Science and STEM in a rural community in southeast Missouri. I strive to provide hands-on learning experiences that engage students. Many of our students lack the support they need to bring needed supplies to school. Your contribution to my wish list will help all of my students be successful in my class. Thanks for your help!

    This is incredibly generous and amazing of you. Thank you so much for helping teachers start their school year with confidence and a little more money in their pockets. I greatly appreciate your consideration of my list, but either way, you rock! Thanks again!

    I am a first grade teacher in Bridgeport, CT, which is an inner city and a high needs district. I have been a teacher for 14 years. We are not given supplies at the beginning of each school year and have to purchase everything ourselves as teachers. I would greatly appreciate any help! Thank you in advance
