Project Self-Sufficiency
Donate School Supplies to Help Low-Income Children in Northwestern New Jersey
500 Hundred Fully-Stocked Backpacks Distributed Each School Year
Project Self-Sufficiency Welcomes the Donation of New School Supplies for Distribution to Low-Income Families.
New school supplies needed by our families include:
-
glue sticks

loose leaf paper

scissor
-
pens

backpacks
The annual Back-to-School Fair allows participants and their families to access information about community resources, including household safety, first aid, relationships with schools, effective homework strategies, and more.
School supplies are distributed at the Back-to-School Fair, and used at the Little Sprouts Early Learning Center and at children's programs throughout the year.
School supplies are gratefully received in July and August. Monetary donations to purchase back packs and school supplies are also welcome.
For more information about where or how to donate school supplies, call 973-940-3500.
Equip a Child to Excel!
Donate $25 to purchase and fill a backpack for an elementary school student or $50 to purchase and fill a large backpack for a student in middle school or high school.
By donating any multiple of these amounts, you will know exactly how many low-income children you have helped to start the school year feeling prepared, confident, and cared for!
