Help us collect school supplies for 15,000 local kids!
“Doing well in school prepares children for a successful life as an adult. Sadly, many children go to school without the basic supplies to do their classwork. This is a problem we can solve. Just a few dollars get paper and pencils into the hands of these kids. We appreciate the support of our business partners who join with us and the whole community to help local children succeed.”
About the KGW School Supply Drive
The KGW School Supply Drive collection period begins August 1 and continues through August 31. The goal is to collect enough monetary donations and school supplies to prepare at least 15,000 students for fall with the materials needed to succeed.
Throughout the drive, you are encouraged to drop off school supply donations or make cash donations online of any amount. A $25 donation provides one student with basic supplies needed to start the year. All donations, benefiting local area schools, are distributed with the help of Schoolhouse Supplies, the non-profit Free Store for Teachers.
