Schools across America today lack basic supplies and learning aids. The scope of the problem is huge, and the opportunity to help is virtually unlimited. There are thousands upon thousands of school systems in need of these critical resources, and there are surplus materials available.
The WExchange will make the connection. This online community and marketplace will identify the location of available paper, pens, pencils, books, computers, and audio/visual equipmentdonated by individuals, companies and like-minded organizationsand help teachers and students gain access to them, free of charge.
Envisioned as a “FreeBay for Teachers”, the WExchange will also distribute learning aids developed by WE, such as electronic study guides and a "cool school" that connects students to distance learning opportunities that are available around the world .
As WE grows and adds partners and sponsors to support our efforts, the WExchange will become a one-stop location where donated materials can be easily listed and placed with teachers and schools. A special section of the WExchange will take everyone involved with our businessfrom donors to sponsorson a virtual walk-through of schools to see the beneficial impact of their donations and purchases.
