How many packs do I need?

We recommend at least one pack for every teacher, sometime during the school year! Most schools order 5-10 packs per month throughout the school year, to use as part of a monthly recognition program or a fun new reward! Some schools provide Alpaca’s gifts to their full staff 3-5 times per year. 

How do we decide who gets the packs?

Alpaca has awesome ideas for you! Have teachers nominate their peers to receive a pack, raffle them off as part of a school initiative, or use them to celebrate the unsung heroes at your school! Our celebration experts are here to help! 

How much do packs cost?

Alpaca’s unique gifts deliver a beautiful gift at a price built just for schools, thanks to our brand partners. Packs range from $20 - $30 each, based on your level of participation. 

How do I pay for Alpaca?

Schools and districts put Title II, teacher retention, and teacher mental health funds to work with Alpaca. Some school leaders purchase Alpaca in partnership with their school foundations, parent groups, and school fundraising dollars too. Need ideas? We’re here to help.
