Free backpacks & school supplies
The cost to equip students with school supplies has been increasing along with everything else. We understand your concerns and want to help prepare the children in our community (43229) for the upcoming school year!
Each year, we collect school supplies and backpacks to help families in our community (the 43229 zip code-either people who live in 43229 or have students who attend a school in 43229) prepare for school. Backpacks will be filled with school supplies and will be available for Elementary, Middle School, and High School Students.
You must be registered! And the event is First come, First serve. On the day of the event, we will serve folks that pre-registered from 9am-10:00am and put nonregistered folks on a wait list. At 10:00am will start serving walk-ins (folks that are not registered) with any remaining backpacks.
This is done in partnership with Stowe Mission.
Event location is Sharon Woods Church (see map link).
HELP US FILL THE BACKPACKS!!!!
You can bring in any of the following school supplies and place in the school supply donation box in the lobby. Thanks so much for helping us to set up students for success for the new school year!
