Making a Difference
Partnering with DonorsChoose
We’re Partnering with DonorsChoose, a website that allows educators to request vital classroom resources and makes it easy for anyone to help a teacher in need, moving us closer to a nation where students in every community have the tools and experiences they need for a great education.
Thank you, Teachers!
"When one teaches,
two learn."
94% of public school teachers in the U.S. spend their own money on classroom supplies without reimbursement. At Democracy Clothing, we deeply value the transformative role that educators play in shaping the future. Their unwavering commitment, passion, and dedication to inspiring and nurturing students is truly commendable.
It is our honor to support DonorsChoose projects that help equip your classroom with the supplies needed to foster a vibrant and enriching learning environment.
