It’s almost time for our students to head back to school and we want to support parents by providing free school supplies so they can cross one more thing off their “to-do list.” We know preparing for the school season can be tasking and we want to help the parents and students in our community. Our desire is to equip our community with the resources they need to succeed in every area of their lives. That’s why we’re hosting a community fun day focused on family, health, education, and overall wellbeing for those right in our backyard.

Free school supplies for students ages 5-17
