Job Description : When it comes to creative teaching aids, teachers have come to depend on The Education Fund‘s Center for Educational Materials to provide them with not only that unique tool to motivate their students, but also the everyday staples they need. The Center for Educational Materials is a warehouse and distribution program that accepts donations of usable excess inventory, remnants, leftovers, surplus supplies and more from companies, which it then makes available free of charge to Miami-Dade County Public Schools teachers for their classrooms.Program events include a yearly art exhibit that combines the power of a child’s imagination with the ultimate recycling program. Students use everyday objects “found” in the 11,000 sq. foot Center warehouse to design and create original works of art that are showcased to the public. Another event, The Education Fund’s Annual Art Auction & Charity Event, allows students and teachers to exhibit their art – both ‘found objects’ art and art done in other mediums – to the business, philanthropic and alumni community. The event is a unique affair where food, music, art and a “salute to community leaders who attended public schools” all intersect to raise friends and funds for the future of education.Sound intriguing?
