Here at Velvey, we love teachers. The amazing men and women who rise daily to the challenge of inspiring, mentoring and enlightening our kids. lt’s more than a job. lt’s a mission to change lives. lt’s also one of the most demanding jobs on the planet—to do more, achieve more, and dream bigger on less.
And still, thousands of teachers show up every day and in every possible classroom condition to make sure their students feel valued, seen, heard, and understood. They show up to make sure that the next generation is empowered with both an education and, more importantly, with hope for the future. That’s a pretty tall order. We’re just here to say thank you—to a favorite English teacher… to the math teacher who never gave up on you… to the drama teacher who saw your inner star… or the coach who taught you about the game of life. Whoever they are, let us help you say thanks.
