Pasco Education Foundation today officially opened the Wise Supplies store at the District Office in Land O’Lakes, where Pasco County teachers can collect much-needed school supplies for their classrooms. All the supplies are free to teachers.

“This is going to be a tremendous resource for our teachers,” said Pasco Superintendent Kurt Browning. “We all know that teachers spend some of their own money to provide extras for their students. Now, they can arrange to visit Wise Supplies and get those extras for free. Many thanks to the Foundation and to the generous donors for supporting our teachers.”

“We are so excited to launch our Wise Supplies Center,” said Stacey Capogrosso, president of the Pasco Education Foundation.  “This has been a vision for quite some time and is now a reality.  Wise Supplies allows Pasco County Schools teachers to shop at no cost for essential supplies, ensuring that all students have access to equitable resources.”    

Capogrosso said Wise Supplies never could have happened without the generous support of our community partners like Suncoast Credit Union, Creative Contractors, Florida Avenue Brewing, Florida Medical Clinic Foundation of Caring, Volkswagen of Wesley Chapel and Lutz Walmart.
