One man’s trash is another teacher’s treasure at the ACC Teacher Reuse Store — the CHaRM warehouse in Athens is full of free supplies for local teachers. The Teacher Reuse Store is open for educators to pick up classroom supplies every Tuesday and Wednesday as well as the first two Saturdays of each month. 

This past July alone, 6 tons of supplies were saved from landfills and given to local teachers. Grady Newsource reporter Christian Andrade brings us an inside look at the Teacher Reuse Store and those it benefits.
