Help us get them back to school!

In the aftermath of the tornadoes there are so many needs to be met it’s hard to know where to start.  Our community has done an amazing job of pitching in, and though there’s so much to do there are many willing hands and hearts.

One of the needs we’ve identified is for school supplies for students and teachers impacted by the tornadoes.

You can help us get these kids back up and running, and provide a much needed source of comfort and normalcy by donating school supplies to help us get them outfitted. This is a great way to let your own children make a difference in the life of another child.

Items we think will be most needed:

Backpacks – preferably new, then they can use them in the fall too. (tuck in a note of encouragement?)

Binders 1” – again preferably new or in very good condition

Filler paper

Pencil Cases – the kind that go into binders

Pencils – both wooden and mechanical

Rulers

Colored Pencils

Crayons

Markers – washable

Red Pens

Copy Paper – full reams please

Glue Sticks – new please

For the teachers:

Hand Sanitizer

Tissues

Disinfecting Wipes

Dry Erase Markers/Erasers

Bring donations to the Museum Center at 200 Inman Street (intersection of Inman and Parker) during regular museum hours: Tues- Fri 10-5, Saturday 10-3.
