We have 6 of these 9 tier units available for free
We would rather them find a new home instead of being recycled
4' Wide x 18" deep
They initially were for greeting cards and such but they could be great for all sorts of things

Thank you to all the epic teachers out there!
I'm wicked sorry for being delayed on this post (usually 1st-7th of the month)
Give Away Day!
Comment the year 1876 ( just 1876) and we'll send you a DM with the Digital Download of it!
Today is the day we find the next caretaker of Rescued Relics Episode 1
This 1876 History of America from Aboriginal Times to Present Day is an incredible book and is on its way to its new owner
Episode 2, a Hand Watercolored 1859 Map, is out now and open for entry comments (historical facts).
Go give the community as many facts as you can in separate comments and we'll be picking its new caretaker in a couple of weeks
Rescued Relics - Episode 2
(Episode 1's 1876 Book is still open for entries til Aug 1st)
Want to win this map and become its next caretaker?
To enter simply comment a Historical Fact:
Comment with a historical fact connected to The Kingdom of Naples, 19th Century Italy, or anything else you discovered while exploring the history shown on this map.
(separate facts in separate comments = extra entries)
We don’t want Rescued Relics to just be us teaching you. We want the comments to become part of the history lesson too.
So dig deep.
Find something weird.
Find something surprising.
Teach all of us something we probably didn’t know.
Every qualifying fact is an entry to win the actual 1821 map featured in this episode.
And remember — you can still go back and enter to win Episode 1's 1876 History of America from Aboriginal Times to 1876 (we do the drawing on August 1st)
Because history shouldn't sit forgotten on a shelf.
It should be explored. Shared. And passed on.
Thank you for being a part of what makes Rescued Relics so special!

Want to help support teachers?
Our goal is to try to help them not come out of pocket as much as we can for as many teachers as we can. They shouldnt have to buy sanitizer, markers, pencils, etc...that should be provided...and since our system fails them we want to be able to step in and help out as a community
We would LOVE donations any and all of the following items:
Student Essentials
Teachers often buy these for when students come without, they will often provide it to them out of their own pocket
• #2 Pencils
• Pens (Blue or Black)
• Crayons
• Colored Pencils
• Washable Markers
• Highlighters
• Glue Sticks
• Child Scissors
• Pink Erasers
• Pencil Boxes / Pencil Pouches
• Wide-Ruled Notebook Paper
• College-Ruled Notebook Paper
• Composition Notebooks
• Spiral Notebooks
• Pocket Folders (with prongs preferred)
• 1" Binders
• Headphones (Wired)
• Earbuds (Middle & High School)
• Dry Erase Markers
• Rulers
• Index Cards
Classroom Essentials
These are items teachers frequently request because they are shared by the entire classroom or quickly run out.
• Facial Tissues
• Paper Towels
• Disinfecting Wipes
• Hand Sanitizer
• White Copy Paper
• Construction Paper

• Quart Zip-Top Bags
