2023 LTUSD Teacher’s Wishlist Drive
Each year the South Tahoe Association of REALTORS® conducts a Holiday Wish Tree Drive for the children. Now it’s time to give back to the teachers that teach & give so much to those kids!
Did you know that most teachers don’t have the supplies that they need to help them teach? That they use THEIR OWN MONEY to purchase those supplies? Let’s help them out!
CLICK the links or SCAN the QR codes below to go to their wishlists! *NOTE: Please be sure to send the gifts directly to the teacher using their address (seen in Amazon).
