Gifts that Honor Teachers

Teacher's Gift Collection

This year, give the favorite teacher in your life a gift that gives back—an education Rescue Gift from the International Rescue Committee.

When children are forced to flee a conflict or natural disaster, they can miss years of learning. The IRC’s emergency classrooms help to fill that educational gap and provide much-needed structure. For refugees returning home, we help to rebuild and supply schools that have been destroyed.  

Here's a list of gifts teachers will enjoy that can not only help children in need get an education—they might even earn you an "A".
