LAFOLLETTE, TN. (WLAF)- Shopping at The Pine Branch today will benefit a local teacher.

Every Thursday, The Pine Branch will be taking a portion of the day’s sale to buy a teacher an item off their Amazon Wish List.

“I want there to be a way to continually support teachers and encourage the teaching community,’ said Tayler Franke, owner of The Pine Branch. “ I want teachers to feel supported every day, every minute.

Each Thursday a teacher will be randomly selected from the wish lists sent to Franke. She will then buy a gift from the lucky teacher’s Amazon Wish List. The gifts can be shipped or picked up at The Pine Branch’s LaFollette location.
