What is “Clear the List”? It’s a nationwide movement to support teachers by purchasing items for their school supply lists.

School will be back in session soon (some districts start in just a couple of weeks!), and teachers are already working hard to prepare their classrooms for the new 2025-2026 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for the majority of classroom supplies out of their own pockets? Yes, it’s true! Classroom supplies are not cheap, and many school districts and families are struggling. This leaves many teachers to pay for school supplies out of their own pockets.

Teachers always go the extra mile for their students, so let’s show them how much we appreciate them by giving back and helping to fulfill their supply lists!

You can help by donating items from teachers’ Amazon shopping lists!

Teachers and educational professionals can head over to Amazon, create a classroom wish list, and then share their lists publicly. Anyone can ‘donate’ items that are on the list, and after donating, donors can even leave a note or message letting the teacher know how much they are appreciated. So awesome!

Even better, if you post your list on social media and tag Amazon with #clearthelist, you may find that your list is cleared BY Amazon! So cool!

Teachers, follow these steps to make your classroom wish list on Amazon:

  • Head over to Amazon and hover over Account & List at the top. Select ‘Create a List’ from the drop-down menu and name your list.
  • Hover over the three dots More menu on the right, and click Manage List to update your shipping address (this is important!) and other preferences like whether you want the list to be private or public. You can also designate whether your list is for an organization, and if so, you’ll have the option to provide the website address of the organization.
  • Click ‘Save’ and then you can start adding items to your list!
  • To add items to your wish list, simply browse for products on Amazon and then click ‘Add to List’ under the Buy box on the right-hand side of any item’s product detail page.
  • Only list owners can make changes through Manage List. Both list owners and collaborators will be able to add and remove items.

If you’re a teacher, be sure to share your teacher list in the comments below so that readers can help clear the list! 🙌

Plus, treat yourself to something special with these teacher discounts!

    Headed into my 10th year teaching English learners at a high-poverty Title 1 school in South Dakota.

    My classroom wishlist isn’t filled with frills—just the basics: hygiene products and what I need to keep my oversized crockpot full of ramen, SpaghettiOs, or oatmeal. Kids can’t focus on learning if they’re hungry or worried about how they look or smell.

    If you’d like to help, here’s my list:

    My granddaughter has always wanted to be a teacher. This year her dream came true, she graduated from college this May, and was offered her first teaching job in July. She will be teaching 5th grade. Please help her out by purchasing something from her list. Thank you for helping out an amazing young lady!❤️

    Thanks! I’m a federally funded teacher working in a public school district. I teach social emotional learning and mindfulness in kindergarten through fifth grade and I will be working with an elective class in high school this coming year. This past year I worked with 77 classes in the school district on a rotating basis from general education to special education to life skills classes thanks for your consideration. Here’s my list…. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/dl/invite/X2L_5TyjY_4qhf8ywaVS125JqYsCcrXpJJq1dS-G5XoOtAD7_Ww_DeqCl5DSInSarcT4asFW_5Vu9FllAPTHdsKm_BkuQ_QWaSm5fm4?ref_=wl_share
