By Monday, August 12th, FamilyWorks hopes to gather school supply donations to give local students the necessary tools to thrive!
On August 19th, FamilyWorks will distribute school supplies to students in need, who require help to be successful in their academic journey. You can help make sure youths in our community can study by:
- Make a financial donation to help FamilyWorks purchase supplies
- Purchase discounted, bulk school supplies through FamilyWorks partner Blu School Supplies (click here)
- Drop off school supplies at the FamilyWorks Family Resource Center at 1501 N 45th St
For those who want to drop-off items – maybe after collecting donations from friends, co-workers, family and/or neighbors – the items most needed are:
- backpacks
- calculators
- pencils
- pens
- composition notebooks
- spiral notebooks
- folders
- 3-ring binders
- glue sticks
- rulers
- small scissors
- highlighters
- sticky notes
- erasers
- colored pencils
- markers
Thank you for making whatever donation you can, to help students in need in our community thrive! Thank you also for sharing this opportunity with others who might be able to help and donate!
