Reusable school supplies.
If you have unused pencils in your junk drawer or a few notebooks lying around, how about passing them forward to bring a smile to the face of students eager to learn and explore the world?
Our local partners find new homes for your old supplies, where they can help kids in your community thrive.
Partnering with Wellspring
Wellspring Family Services helps families experiencing crisis take the next step forward, tap into their own resilience and strength, and build community.
Wellspring provides specialized care for young children whose families are experiencing the effects of homelessness. They offer a safe learning environment for children ages one to five who are living in King County in a shelter or transitional housing.
Partnering with Grassroot Projects
Grassroot Projects aims to empower under-resourced children of immigrant, refugee, and undocumented families by providing resources and guidance to help them integrate successfully within the community. Their motto is "Small Projects, Big Dreams." Projects fund or directly provide resources for the children's health, nutrition, clothing, education, and cultural needs. They were founded in 2017 by two immigrant women and have an outreach in King and Snohomish counties.
Their focus is to decrease barriers and provide assistance to families while protecting their dignity. They are a no-ask organization and deliver customized care packages that are culturally sensitive to the doorstep to help families overcome barriers to access.
Join the movement to build a future without waste.
