Description

Gwendolyn Brooks College Preparatory Academy is a Blue Ribbon Award-winning Level 1+ Chicago public high school serving 1,000 students in grades 7-12, 95% of whom identify as Black or Latinx, and approximately 70% of whom qualify for free or reduced lunch. We are currently seeking in-kind donations of products, gift certificates and gift cards, and experiences to celebrate our incredible staff during National Teacher Appreciation Week the first week of May. We will conduct a raffle for our staff consisting of the donations we've received to honor their passion and dedication to our students and their craft, especially in the difficulty that has been this past year. 
We would be immensely grateful for any in-kind donation organizations and companies might be in a position to give.
