Last year we supplied nearly 800 area children with backpacks, school supplies, and hygiene products through the Supplies 4 Success and Fresh Start 4 Kids giving drive. Support area children by donating new items from the list below or sponsoring a child through a monetary gift. Together, we can make sure all children in our area have the tools they need for a strong start to the school year.
