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!

    Hi everyone!

    I am so excited to share that I will be back teaching 1st grade for my 5th year in a row. Woo! I’m preparing for a brand new ground of students and have created a wish list with a few items and lots of books that would make a big difference in our learning space. Everything you gift helps set up a magical year for my little learners. If you’d like to support every little bit helps and is GREATLY appreciated! Thank you so much! 💜💛❤️

    I’m a 5th grade teacher in North Carolina. I’m completing my licensure this semester after beginning my teaching journey through lateral entry. This will be my 3rd year of teaching, and I’d like to start updating my room since most of what I’ve had has been hand me downs from teachers who have moved on from the school. Teaching and going to school myself at the same time is tough, but so worth it!

    Thank you Hip2Save for doing this!

    I’m starting my 8th year teaching and 3rd year at ZES in 5th grade Science & Social Studies. I wanted to share my 5th grade classroom wish list for anyone who might be interested in supporting my ZES students this year! Every item goes directly to helping my kids learn, grow, and feel excited about school. 💛✨

    If you feel led to donate, thank you from the bottom of my heart! 🥹🎒

    Skip the impulse buys (do you really need another vegetable chopper??) and get the same dopamine hit – without tripping over Amazon boxes on your porch!

    If you are feeling generous, curious, or just want to help prevent me from hot-gluing my sanity together this year, here’s my Amazon Classroom Wishlist!

    Every little bit helps me create a fun, organized space where my kindergarten kids can learn, grow, and have fun.

    Thanks for supporting our tiny world-changers – and the slightly sleep-deprived adult guiding them!
