A 2nd grade teacher reveals her salary in a Facebook post -- then a stranger filled her classroom with supplies.
In 2018, Elisabeth Milich captured national attention after she disclosed her annual income -- which was $35,621.25 at the time -- while thousands of teachers marched for the #RedforEd movement at the Arizona state capitol to demand a 20% pay increase and better education funding.
Adam reached out to Milich on Facebook and asked if she needed help purchasing school supplies for her classroom. Adam ended up adopting five more classrooms in addition to Milich's. And last month, he launched a website, classroomgiving.org, to help other teachers who are in need of supplies.
