Doodle Street sends art supplies to classrooms where budgets don't cover the basics.

Who can request supplies? +
Any K–8 art teacher can request supplies. If you're a high school teacher, please email us at hey@doodlestreet.org so we can curate a kit that works for your students!
Can I donate supplies directly instead of money? +
Right now we're focused on monetary donations so we can buy exactly what teachers request and ship efficiently. If you have a large quantity of unused supplies, reach out at hey@doodlestreet.org and we'll see if we can coordinate!
Is my donation tax-deductible? +
Yes! Doodle Street is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. You'll receive a receipt for tax purposes after your donation.
What about student privacy? +
We only share photos of student artwork, never faces or last names. Teacher and donor information is never shared with third parties.
How long does shipping take? +
Most boxes ship within three weeks of an approved request, flat-rate and trackable. Bulk seasonal requests (back-to-school and Summer) may take slightly longer.
