High School is tough. The academic pressure, the cliques, all during an age when we are also coming of age. Now add on the prospect of being homeless and the basics of getting to school on time with the supplies needed to succeed can be too much to handle.
That’s why this school season we are working with YouthCare to get their community some basic school supplies. This means you can clear your office or bag room at the same time you are making an impact in our community.
While what we take in this category varies by city, here is what is generally included.
Backpacks
New or gently used
Messenger bags
With working zippers, straps, clasps, and buckles
