Help PENCIL Support our Metro Nashville School Teachers With Much-Needed Supplies

Help PENCIL Support our Metro Nashville School Teachers With Much-Needed Supplies

Summer break is almost over with Metro Nashville Public Schools being less than a week away from starting. Our friends at PENCIL had a Back-to-School Celebration this past Saturday to distribute FREE school supplies to ALL MNPS teachers before the school year begins. As an individual or corporation, there is still an opportunity to help stock the LP Pencil Box with more school supplies for our hard-working Metro teachers or purchase supplies from PENCIL’s Amazon wish list to get through the entire school year. You can also donate funds, where every $1 donated allows PENCIL to provide $8 worth of school supplies to Metro Nashville Public School teachers! See all these great ways to help in the blue boxes halfway down the page..
