  • More than 61% of students can't afford lunch, much less school supplies
  • Some kids go to school without socks and shoes
  • Teachers spend an average of $1,000 a year out of their own pockets to help care for their students' needs
  • School supply budgets only allocate five cents a day for each student
  • Businesses search for positive outlets for usable, surplus products

A Gift for Teaching (AGFT) is a FREE store for teachers to shop for supplies to be given to needy children in their classrooms. Our mission is to ensure that children and classrooms in our community have the basic tools for learning. We do this by transferring, at no cost, the community's surplus supplies and merchandise into the hands of teachers and school children in need. The Osceola County AGFT store is a program offered through The Education Foundation of Osceola County, Inc. in partnership with the already successful A Gift For Teaching store in Orlando. Together we are able to pool resources, share product, and reach more needy students as a result of this unique partnership
