Back to school bash: Buy a round for teachers!

For those of us with kids, we all know how stressful the first month back to school always is. There’s new schedules, new supplies, and a completely new routine to get used to. By the end of August, most of us are ready for another summer holiday.

Now multiply that by one hundred, and that’s what it feels like for teachers going back to school.

The back to school BASH

Before students even step foot in the classroom, teachers are busy setting up their classrooms and planning curriculum. And once the school doors open on the first day back, they have their hands full with not only teaching, but also trying to get 30+ students on the same page. It’s exhausting!

That’s why we’ve partnered with Teach901 to throw Memphis teachers the ultimate Back to School Bash on August 20th. We’ll be treating them to food, drinks, giveaways, and a space to relax after a hectic first few weeks back at school.

What can you do for memphis teachers?

We’re so glad you asked! It just so happens that Give901 is running a fundraiser to buy teachers a drink, a round, or some appetizers!

It’s a simple but effective way to treat our hard-working educators.

So how does it work?

🎯 LEVEL ONE: $10

Buy a teacher a drink that says, "You’re awesome."
A simple "cheers" goes a long way. Your $10 gift covers a well-earned drink for a Memphis teacher—because staying late, grading papers, and showing up for students every day deserves a toast.


🍽️ LEVEL TWO: $28

Fuel a table with appetizers.
Your $28 helps us treat a table of teachers to some awesome appetizers. Because every educator deserves delicious treats.


🍹 LEVEL THREE: $60

A round of drinks for a team of happy teachers.
Help an entire squad of educators kick back and relax with a round of drinks. Your $60 is a huge thank you to everyone working hard all day in the classroom.


🎉 LEVEL FOUR: $130

Bringing the party with a baker’s dozen of drinks!
With $130, you’re not just buying drinks—you’re making the party happen. That’s 13 well-deserved cheers for incredible educators.
