BIC Bucks for Teachers

Back to school shopping was definitely different for me this year because my oldest daughter wanted to pick out everything by herself. Instead of shopping with the school supplies list by myself like in previous years, she came along and was very specific about selecting every item in her preferred colors and style. Luckily this process was more fun than frustrating because we purchased BIC supplies from Target where we found a huge selection, even at the peak of the busiest school supplies shopping days. We were also smiling through the shopping experience because we knew our purchase would be supporting public school teachers with BIC Bucks for Teachers. As part of its BIC Bucks for Teachers program, BIC USA Inc. is donating $100,000 to DonorsChoose.org, a crowdfunding site for public school teachers.

Our BIC Back to School supplies helped support local public teachers with BIC Bucks for Teachers and DonorsChoose.org.

Your Purchase Supports Public Teachers

The funds have already been donated but you get to help decide which classroom projects should receive donations. Through September 15, by purchasing $10 or more in BIC stationery products from any major retailer, you can apply to receive a $10 BIC Bucks donation code to distribute to a DonorsChoose.org classroom project you feel passionate about this back to school season.

We headed to Target to finish up shopping for back to school supplies and my daughter was excited to get a few final items for fourth grade. She had specific items in mind and took her time finding the perfect mechanical pencils. She decided a 60-count box of mechanical pencils would last the year. She was convincing but honestly I think it was more about the 20 “xtra sparkle” pencils in the box.

Our favorite thing about back to school this year is helping support our local public teachers with BIC Bucks for Teachers and DonorsChoose.org.

I snapped a photo of my receipt on my iPhone then uploaded it on the BIC Bucks for Teachers site. The process was very quick and easy.

Easily upload your back to school BIC shopping receipt to help support local public teachers with DonorsChoose.org and BIC Bucks for Teachers.

It's easy to help support local public teachers and classroom projects with DonorsChoose.org and BIC Bucks for Teachers.

If you’re a public school teacher in need of funding for a classroom project, you can set up the donation page directly from DonorsChoose.org. From that same site you can search local public classroom projects by city, topics or schools. We found a surplus of fascinating classroom projects in our home town. It feels great knowing we are contributing to a positive educational experience simply by purchasing classroom supplies.

  1. I was not aware of this BIC program to help out teachers. This sounds wonderful and most of us spend that much buying supplies for school. Glad to help out.

  3. I love that I can give back by purchasing the products that I already love. This is such a wonderful idea for teachers.

  4. I would use Bic products even if they were not giving back. So knowing they are supporting our teachers is another reason to buy their school supplies.

  5. I love that they support teachers this way through this initiative! BIC was definitely a staple brand I used when I was in school.

  6. Shopping for school supplies is a fun thing to do especially when there’s a lot of options to choose from and there’s budget given out by parents. For us, we just had to use the same supplies until they’re broken, misplaced, or used up. This program looks interesting for teachers.

  8. We are doing back to school shopping for fourth graders this year too. Wow there list of stuff on the supply list doubled in size and price from previous years in elementary school. Bit of sticker shock this summer for us! So I can appreciate how the BIC program may be helping some people out who may be struggling to get their kids stocked up for school

  9. I’ve heard of this initiative and I think it’s awesome that BIC is doing this for the teachers. They buy supplies out of their own pockets and it’s good to give them as much support as we can!

  10. Wow this is great. I love BIC products and always have a stash in my closet of my favorite pens. We still need to do my seniors school supply list, so BIC will definitely be on my radar.
