Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club Support Gray Elementary Teachers

Disponible en: Español

To help offset rising expenses for classroom supplies, Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club have launched Teacher Rewards, a new program to provide more than $4.5 million to 45,000 deserving teachers across the United States.

On average, teachers spend more than $500 a year out of their own pockets for classroom supplies, according to the American Federation of Teachers.

Statistics like these inspire Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club associates to continue supporting education and teacher recognition in their local communities. Sam’s Club selected Gray Elementary to thank all the staff for their hard work and dedication. In a random drawing, Sam’s Club provided 20 teachers at Gray Elementary with a $50.00 gift card on November 26.
