Each year, we work with local partners to collect donations of school supplies to provide backpacks filled with classroom essentials to elementary, middle, and high school students from low-income families in our county. Community members and Companies are invited to donate supplies or funds to help us purchase supplies for students needing assistance.
HOW TO GET INVOLVED
Either as a workplace or a family, you can collect school supplies for local students in need of assistance.
