We are looking for: backpacks, pens/pencils of various sizes/for various ages, crayons, three ring binders, calculators, pencil sharpeners, rulers, glue sticks, Scotch tape, loose leaf paper, multi-subject notebooks with dividers, dictionaries, pencil cases/pouches.

Cash donations are also fine (leave them with the bartenders). We’ll be collecting supplies through the beginning of August.
