Back to School: Backpacks for Bright Futures (July 15 - September 30)
Our summer fundraising appeal is all about getting local students the new shoes, clothes, and supplies they need to return to school in the fall ready to learn.
Every child deserves the tools to dream big. Too many children start the school year without the basics they need to thrive and make their dreams a reality. When kids come to class without everything they need, they're not as confident, focused, or excited. Sometimes, they don't even come to school at all.
Your tax-deductible gift ensures that children among the 48.4% of local kids living in poverty have what they need to get to school and focus on learning. Make your gift today (of any amount) and set a child up for a winning streak this spring.
Help Shoes and Clothes for Kids (SC4K) keep our Free Store stocked with new school-appropriate shoes, clothes, and school supplies year-round. Your tax-deductible gift makes an immediate impact on the students, families, and communities we serve. Your generosity matters.
