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!

    Any support would mean the world to me. Hello everyone! I am excited to share that I am entering my 2nd year as a Teacher, having started this remarkable journey in November 2024. This year, I will have the privilege of guiding a dynamic combo class of 4th and 5th graders. I would be immensely grateful for any support, as I strive to gather a diverse array of resources to elevate student learning. My school faces challenges in acquiring the necessary resources compared to others, but together, we can create a lasting impact! This wishlist is not just a list of items; it embodies my vision for fostering a nurturing and inspiring classroom for years to come.
    Check out this Gift List I just created. https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/31819JM2PP3PA?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_ggr-subnav-share_REHT7SN1CYJRNSA2YE8E_1&language=en-US

    Hello 👋 3rd grade math and science teacher here, hoping there is a beautiful soul out there who wants to help support this teacher’s 48 new students! 🍎 I love my job, my school, and my students! 🥰 I don’t love that most of the real world experiences and hands-on learning I strive to bring into my classroom every year comes at an expense. I do ask parents for help when they can, but since my school serves kids from across the WHOLE city, we have a very diverse group of learners whose parents can’t alway afford to help out. I don’t want any of my kids to feel left out or singled out in my room, so I usually end up buying things myself! Any help would be greatly appreciated 🫶
