Haldimand and Norfolk Women’s Services is asking the community to help local families prepare for the upcoming school year.
The organization is collecting new back-to-school supplies for families involved in its programs and is hoping to have all donations collected by August 18th.
Items being sought include backpacks, lunch bags, pencil cases, water bottles, shoes, clothing and a variety of school supplies. Pencils, pencil crayons, glue, scissors, erasers, sharpeners and rulers are also among the requested items.
The organization says donations should only be dropped off during daylight hours.
Community members interested in helping are encouraged to donate new supplies before the August 18th deadline to help ensure local students have what they need when they head back to school.
