We teachers know all about journeys. Many of us are getting ready to journey back to our classrooms to prepare for the new school year. Each school year becomes a journey of sorts, with its own set of students, challenges, and rewards.
We teachers also know all about support. Year after year, we give so much of ourselves to help our students learn, build confidence in their abilities, and empower them to become the future our world needs. We also support our fellow teachers, our families, our communities. In the midst of it all, it becomes easy to forget that, simply put, teachers touch lives.
Every. Single. Day.

While many of us are thinking of back-to-school, Jen Bengel and her family have been preparing for a journey of another kind. They will soon be traveling to Uganda to adopt a child! Check out Jen’s blog post HERE! (Prepare to be inspired, and probably shed a tear or two!)
A number of fellow teacher-bloggers have joined forces to offer a measure of support to Jen and her family as they prepare for their special journey. Each of us has chosen a resource from our store that, between now and August 31, a portion of each sale’s proceeds will be donated to Jen’s adoption fund!
This is the resource I have chosen (click image to be taken to my TPT store):
Between now and August 31, I pledge to donate $1 of each sale of this resource (one of my best sellers!) to Jen’s adoption fund.
The timing couldn't be better since TPT's big Back to School sale is coming this Monday and Tuesday, August 4-5!
Hop around to the blogs featured below to see what my friends are pledging!
