School Supply items could include, glue sticks, 24 ct. box of crayons, Colored pencils, washable markers, dry erase markers, pocket folders, 1” Binders, sheet protectors, book bags, box of Kleenex, large pink erasers, wide ruled spiral notebooks, packages of notebook paper, post it notes, Highlighters, pencils, zippered pencil pouch, and lined index cards.

 

 

“Backpacks full of school supplies help children focus on learning and help teachers focus on their jobs, knowing their students have what they need,” said KinderCare District Manager Amber Hale. “This program can help parents who may be struggling to make ends meet by making back to school season less stressful. We also believe students that have what they need are more confident and start the school year off on a level playing field with their peers. By donating, members of our community are giving more than a pencil or a notebook; they’re giving a child an opportunity to learn.”
