It’s still summertime, but the new school year will be here before you know it!
With support from the North Eastern Ontario Children's Foundation, we are launching our annual Back to School Campaign to ensure that kids in our communities have the tools for a successful start to the school year!
Help reduce some of the added stress or anxiety that the back-to-school transition can cause for children, youth and their families by donating new school supplies to any NEOFACS office location until August 14, 2023.
Collected items will be distributed to children and youth in need for the 2023-2024 school year!
The following items are always greatly appreciated:
- Backpacks, lunch bags, ice packs, pencils, lined paper, binders, erasers, pens, rulers, glue sticks, scissors, graph paper, calculators, thermos, notebooks, duo-tangs, dividers, pencil cases, highlighters, pencil sharpeners, spiral notebooks, highlighters, geometry set, painting smocks, white-out, and combination locks.
