School Supply Drive Needs Your Help
The project helps students and their parents get through some difficult times.
T&E Care is looking for donations to help provide back-to-school supplies for Tredyffrin-Easttown School students in financial need.
T& E Care founder Sandi Gorman says there are about 200 student who need help getting some of the basic school supplies for the fall. In an email to Patch she outlined the help the non-profit volunteer organization needs by the end of July:
The 2013 T&E Care School Supply Drive is running now until July 29. Major Help Needed!
Over 200 local students are needing assistance this year in getting their back-to-school supplies! The T&E Care website (www.tecare.org) lists the specific local needs as determined by school counselors, along with the suggested list of supplies (appropriate for the age of each student).
T&E Care is also looking for gift cards from Staples, Target, Walmart, or Kmart for any extra supplies, and also for any 1st day clothes for the kids, or grocery gift cards to help with at least those first few breakfasts - so at least the kids will start the year in a good way!
Please check the website for more details - or send emails with questions or offers of help to schoolsupply@tecare.org.
