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.
​

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!
