Four Peaks for Teachers was created to help reduce the financial burden on teachers in the southwest-many of whom spend hundreds of dollars on school supplies each year. Using direct donations and funds raised through beer sales, we purchase the supplies teachers tell us they need, from scissors and staplers to pencils and paper, and build kits to hand out for free in multiple cities and states.
This year, Four Peaks will support thousands of teachers across the Southwest, including distributing more than 7,000 school supply kits to teachers in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah. The program will also provide 10 nominated teachers with $1,000 cash grants and one grand prize ‘Teacher of the Year’ award winner with a $3,000 cash grant and custom teachers’ lounge makeover at their school.
A percentage from every can, bottle, and a pint of Four Peaks Kilt Lifter sold is used to expand the program and provide supplies to thousands of teachers in need.
“I probably spend between $200 and $300 a year on classroom supplies and other things my students might need. Four Peaks for Teachers is a huge help in cutting down some of that cost. Plus the materials it provides, especially in the summertime, give us a head start for the school year.”

“We work more hours than an average person who works for a salary. We pay out of pocket for almost everything in our classrooms. We need more support overall.”
