Coldwell Banker Commercial Jenkins & Associates and MAJ Development Corporation are hosting their first School Supply Drive for the Vancouver School District. They will stuff backpacks with donated school supplies from the district’s list for first grade students. The Foundation for Public Schools will distribute the bags to first graders in need. CBC and MAJ ask that their family, friends, clients, and neighbors donate any of the items on the list provided. Cash, checks and gift cards are also welcome. They will be used by staff to purchase additional backpacks and supplies.
Each backpack needs:
1 box crayons
1 box colored pencils
2 large glue sticks or white liquid glue
1 pair scissors
2 packages yellow #2 pencils
2 wide ruled spiral notebooks
1 ruler 12” (cm and inches)
2 large erasers
1 small school box
1 box of tissue
Please drop-off these items to our office July 29- August 22. Our office hours are 8:30a.m. - 5:00p.m.
**Update 08/06/2013**
Through this public shopping list, anyone can purchase the items needed to support Vancouver School District Students in need. Every order through the list will be shipped directly to the CBC/MAJ office. Their staff will ensure the supplies are stuffed into backpacks and given to The Foundation for Vancouver Public Schools where they will be distributed district wide.
Spread the word! Share the flyer below (or this link http://amzn.com/w/T404T1ETCC63) to help us raise enough supplies to stuff at least twenty backpacks.
