On our morning show yesterday, we were discussing the start of a new school season and the associated cost for parents.

A new survey of parents revealed that each household spends about $480 to start the new school year. This is for things like clothes, supplies, equipment, fees, and the like. That amount is up $20 from last year and 70 bucks from two years ago.

While we surely do sympathize with parents and the rising cost to send our children to school, we can't forget about our educators. We all know that teachers spend countless amounts of money out of their own pockets to properly equip their classrooms.

That got us thinking: "Maybe we can help!" We don't have deep pockets as lowly disc jockeys, but we know a few folks. So we took to our Facebook to first ask local teachers to share links to their online wishlist. (In nearly all cases, that's through Amazon.)

The response was huge so we decided we would post every wishlist that was submitted.

Below is a list of all the teachers that either submitted their list or had one turned in on their behalf. We would love to help out as many as we can.

That's where you come in. Would you please pick at least one name, click on it, and buy at least one item off their wishlist? More if you can.

Make it a random selection, look for someone you know, perhaps you'll stumble on your kid's teacher -- whatever method you choose, thank you in advance for this small yet thoughtful gesture.
