Is there a stronger memory than that first-day-of-school feeling with fresh notebooks, sharpened pencils, good solid erasers, and a brand new can-do attitude?

This year we will be helping at least 375 students of which 250 are refugee adults. This program is a great way to give refugees from Afghanistan, Ukraine and other countries a new start in their learning. The number of clients we serve has more than tripled as a result of the Afghan crisis and large influx of refugees! Many of these students are attending school in the U.S. for the very first time.

We especially need gift cards so that families can purchase children’s back to school clothing.

This year you can participate online or in person.

To participate online go to our SignUpGenius page to sign up for your donation. Or you can buy from our Target Registry, choose a tag from our board at Levy Campus/JCC lobby or at a number of other locations, or just send a check.
