Operation School Supplies

10_on_your_side_operation_school_supplies.jpg

As difficult as it is to believe, it is time to start thinking about the end of summer and all of those needed school supplies. This local donation drive is a great opportunity to get the kids involved with giving back to their community.

Operation School Supplies collects school supplies for children in need throughout the Hampton Roads community each year. Donations of school supplies are collected in August and then given to local school districts where they are made available to students who need them.

Your family can help make sure every child in our community has a strong start to the 2015-2016 school year. Supplies can be dropped off at participating locations or you can drop off donations during one of the “Stuff the Bus” events.
