How the teacher gift pool will work

Every thank-you makes a teacher eligible.

Our plan is to include every eligible teacher thanked on the map automatically in the monthly drawing. A free, approved recognition is all that's needed to be considered, subject to the official program rules once launched.

How winners are chosen: Teachers will be randomly selected from the pool of eligible recognized teachers. Additional thank-yous, photo purchases, and contributions will not increase their chances. One entry per eligible teacher is the intended rule.

What teachers can receive: Monthly gift cards funded by optional contributions and 10% of each paid photo tribute. For illustration, a $500 gift budget could provide one $100 gift card and sixteen $25 gift cards. Actual gifts depend on available funding and published rules.

Where contributions go: Our proposed split for direct contributions is 90% for teacher gifts and 10% for the independent for-profit platform, including processing and operating expenses. Separately, 10% of every photo purchase is added to the teacher prize pool. These amounts are tracked internally and are not automatically transferred to a separate account. Direct contributions are not tax-deductible charitable donations and are never earmarked for one teacher.

Not open yet: No gift drawing is scheduled or accepting entries, and contribution payments are disabled. Eligibility, official rules, and the drawing process must be finalized before launch.
