Business Involvement

Businesses support teachers

More than 100 Arizona businesses have demonstrated their support for teachers by participating in TVT programs. They understand the critical role teachers play in developing the future workforce and contributing to a strong community. Your company can join our efforts by participating in one of the following programs:

Teachers in Industry – This partnership with the UA College of Education places experienced classroom teachers in your workforce during the summer. Businesses gain from the professionalism and expertise of a math or science teacher, and teachers gain valuable real-world industry experience to more effectively prepare students to enter the future workforce. Learn more about how you can invest in teachers.

Tucson Supplies Teachers – Teachers report that they spend between $500 to $1,000 of their own money each year to purchase supplies they need for their students and classrooms. Your company can help us by contributing funds for gift cards that allow teachers to buy exactly what they need. Since its inception, Tucson Supplies Teachers has provided more than $1 million worth of supplies to Tucson-area teachers. Donate today

TVT Discount Card Program – Join more than 70 local companies in providing discounts for teachers on your products or services. Teachers love not only the savings they receive, but also the support they feel from the local business community.

Event sponsorships – Sponsorships for events like Stand Up 4 Teachers and Let’s Talk ED are an opportunity for businesses to fund critical TVT programs and demonstrate support for teachers.

 Grants and Contributions – Our success in providing valuable programs to support teachers is due to the generous financial support we’ve received from businesses and foundations. Become a TVT partner by donating today!
