School Supplies to NOLA

Currently we are collecting and sorting school supplies. We have received countless donations from schools, individuals and community groups, THANK YOU! By the end of July all supplies will be sorted and we will spend one day loading them onto pallets, shrink wrapping them and marking them for a particular school. Then they will be placed on a semi and head for the Big Easy!

There are 25 schools in New Orleans that we will be aiding this August. Beginning with those with the lowest LEAP scores, we call them and see how many students they anticipate in the fall and what their needs are. Then we try and match their needs up with the supplies we have, sometimes they could really use Spanish books or Art supplies, so we put out the word and see if we can come up with those items.

The number of folders, notebooks, etc is directly tied to the number of students, so maybe each student would receive 3 new notebooks, 2 used notebooks and a few folders both new and used, etc. We also package up supplies for the teachers/classroom markers, pencils, etc.
