This Teacher Appreciation Week (May 5-9, 2025), give a gift that truly makes a difference.

Instead of another coffee mug or gift card, honor your favorite teacher by sponsoring a student in their name. Your donation helps provide weekend meals to local children through the Backpack Buddies program, serving over 300 students across six schools in Sterling, VA, every week.

When you donate:

🎓 You honor a teacher who’s made a difference in your life or your child’s
🍎 You support a student facing food insecurity
💌 You’ll have the chance to include your teacher’s name and have the option to download something to send them a message of thanks

We’re on a mission to honor 50 teachers and sponsor 50 students this May. Every gift, big or small, helps fill a backpack—and a child’s heart—with hope.

💡 Want to make your gift even more special? Download a free printable thank-you note to give to your teacher, available at sterlinghelp.org/Thank-You

Thank you for helping us celebrate educators in the most meaningful way we know—by supporting their students.
