Back 2 School America (B2SA), a national non-profit organization that provides free school supplies each year to tens of thousands of deserving kids from low-income families to help them succeed in the classroom, is pleased to announce the launch of its 2023 We Appreciate Teachers campaign. The winners will also receive gift baskets and will be treated to a champagne and hors d’oeuvres reception in Chicago the first week of May (Teacher Appreciation Week). Anyone can submit a campaign application on behalf of a teacher, including the teacher himself/herself. The teacher must be currently employed by a school in Illinois. To participate, interested parties should complete the online We Appreciate Teachers campaign application, or print out and complete the application form off the B2SA website, and then mail it in to B2SA. All applications must be completed no later than April 1st, 2023 and include an essay (250 to 500 words) explaining how the nominated teacher goes above and beyond to positively impact their students’ lives. Winning teachers will be notified by April 11th.
