Once you have sent this, your needs will be met upon approval and verification of the info you send in.  At that point you will be welcome to become a User and write up a page about yourself and a list of the items you are in need of.

Please be sure to also check the CURRICULUM category or the appropriate category for your needs.

Donation Information

Here are the guidelines for how we are running the Home School Curriculum Exchange here at GTH:

If you have any older used or unused curriculum you would like to make available for donation to a home school family, there are two ways to participate. You can make any type of resources available that is pertinent to home schoolers, such as folders, paper, notebooks, pencils, pens, basically any schooling resource that one might use.

#1.) you can Contact Us to become a User on our site. If we do not know you, you will need to email us information about you. Your name; A little about yourself; Your blog or website info;

#2.) you are welcome to post your items on your own site and ask for a link on a page here back to your page on your site. For this method, we will need you to do the following:

Post about it on your personal blog or website, titling it Gleaning the Harvest Resources.

Please Contact Us and include the direct link to the post.

Be honest and accurate in your description of your items.

Be sure to include your terms of shipping. (See Shipping below)

Upon approval, we will then list it below with your link.

Your blog must be an open blog for the link to work for everyone to see it.

The families will then be able to go to your list and see if you have resources they will be able to use in their home school and can then contact you directly about what you can do for them.

SHIPPING

It would be great if the family is needy that the Donator would be willing to pay the postage to mail the resources to the home school family, in the event that they are unable to. That will be best cleared up up-front. Please state your terms on your post and link back to this page so that others can also take part in this if they so desire.

I will work out the details as I run into them. I will be deleting and adding information as it becomes available or is taken. It would help this ministry greatly if you could keep in contact after an item has been donated to a single mom.

THANK YOU! for working with us to be a light and a blessing to home school families! Without you, we could not do it!
