We’re teaming up with Parker Street Food & Furniture Bank to collect new school supplies and help fill 1,000 backpacks with essentials for students of all ages, from preschoolers to mature students.
We need YOUR help to make sure every local student starts the year strong!
For many families, back-to-school shopping can be a heavy financial burden. Your donation will give kids the tools they need to learn, feel confident, and succeed this year.
Join us this Friday, August 15 from 7:30AM–10AM outside the Virgin Radio studio on Agricola Street, drop of your donation, and be part of something amazing for our community!
Most Needed Items:
School bags & binders
Colour pencils & crayons
Erasers, glue sticks, highlighters
Looseleaf, markers, pens & pencils (with sharpeners!)
Rulers, scissors, geometry sets
Scribblers & notebooks
Full list and details here: Parker Street Back to School Program
Every backpack you help fill is one more student walking into school ready to take on the year. Let’s make this happen!
