Backpacks and School Supplies
We encourage and support the children in our Community Outreach families in their education. At the beginning of each school year, Outreach provides backpacks filled with school supplies for the school children in our Outreach client families. We provide, as we are able, filled backpacks for a number of other area children when requested. Outreach also provides money for field trips, fees for extra-curricular activities, etc. Tutors have been arranged for students in need of extra help as well as scholarships for summer school when needed.
You Can Help
When did you last get to choose the coolest book covers? Or pick out the best box of crayons? Each July, names are available of those in need of backpacks and school supplies, along with lists of the supplies they need for their grade at their school. For more information, contact Outreach.
