School Supplies Drive

This year, the congregation is once again excited to get children ready to learn in the new school year.

We will have a kick-off on Sunday, August 5 and ask for donations to arrive by Sunday, August 19.We will deliver them to Hoover before school starts on Thursday, August 23. Back-to-School ads have arrived, so if you see a great deal and want to get started, here’s how you can help.

Our project goal is to help supply the classrooms at Hoover Elementary. We asked where the teachers need extra help – where they might be spending their own pocket money to benefit their students.They responded with six top items that are needed all year and that seem to get used up quickly. Any quantity of any item is appreciated.

• Facial tissues – Kleenex, Puffs, any brand
• Bleach wipes – Clorox or similar brands
• Boxes of crayons – any size, any brand
• Plastic pencil boxes – any size
• Glue sticks – any size
• Dry erase markers – black or colored are both welcome
