A digital keepsake for teachers

The good stuff, all in one place.

A digital keepsake for teachers, filled by the people who appreciate them.

One private link lets everyone add something, then the Archive is theirs to open, revisit, and keep adding to.

Teachers get a lot of things worth keeping.

Keep the Archive gives everyone one private place to collect the notes, drawings, messages, and little things that might otherwise end up scattered across cards, desks, and drawers.

How it works

Step 01

Start an Archive

Create one for your teacher and choose when they can open it.

Step 02

Share one private link

Invite families, students through their adults, colleagues, or anyone you want to contribute.

Step 03

Everyone adds something

Messages, notes, drawings, artwork, or other little things worth keeping.

Step 04

Give the Archive

Send the teacher invitation, or print the Give the Archive card.

Step 05

They open it

On reveal day, the Archive becomes theirs to revisit and continue adding to.

The group can keep contributing after reveal, right up to the collecting-until date you choose.

One collective gift

A little something from everyone.

One link makes it easy for a whole group to contribute to one meaningful gift — without collecting cards, tracking down families, or trying to fit everyone’s message into one place.

Works for Teacher Appreciation, holidays, birthdays, end of year, retirement, farewell, or just because.

One Archive. One payment.

Something worth keeping.

One private link. Everyone adds something. The little things worth keeping finally have a place to go.

Made by a teacher

Made from the things students leave behind.

Keep the Archive started with years of notes, drawings, cards, and little pieces of paper from students—the kind you find tucked in a desk drawer years later and are instantly glad you kept.
