Being equipped with the proper tools for school is essential to academic success.
Outreach recognizes that in order to break the cycle of poverty and hunger, children must be prepared to learn and succeed in school. Additionally, statistics show that children tend to learn and retain more information if they perceive themselves to be on a level playing field with other children. Children that are academically prepared have higher self-confidence, self-worth and pride, which in turn, results in better grades.
Sign up today! Registering for our School Supplies Distribution is easy. We ask parents & guardians to complete a brief registration for each student in the household for planning purposes, which helps us ensure we have enough supplies for children across all individual grade levels.
