Once again T&E Care is organizing a School Supply Drive to help area kids whose families struggle to buy the required supplies. Just like last year, we expect to be supporting over 200 local kids.That’s a lot of pencils and notebooks! We will be looking for help with the supplies and gift cards for each of the students we have on our lists. For the gift cards – if we offer a minimum of $25/child that means over $5000 in gift cards. These cards are used to help kids get some extra things like new shoes, new underclothes or socks, new shirts or jeans, etc. Sometimes it’s all about making sure they have money for healthy recess snacks. This program allows the community to help our local kids feel good about the start of the new school year. Again this year FLITE will be helping us to fund the book bags needed for the students, so those will not be on the lists. We’ll be looking for specific supplies as requested by the TESD staff.
