FAIRFAX, VA (July 31, 2025) – The countdown to the new school year is on—and Sheehy Auto Stores is helping students across the Mid-Atlantic gear up for success. Through Monday, August 11, Sheehy’s annual School Supply Drive will collect new, unused classroom essentials to benefit local students and schools in need.

With 30 participating dealerships throughout Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C., the company is calling on customers, employees, and neighbors to drop off backpacks, notebooks, pencils, tissues, and more to help make the back-to-school season brighter for thousands of children.

“We believe that a strong start to the school year begins with strong community support,” said Vince Sheehy, President of Sheehy Auto Stores. “This annual effort is one small way we can help ensure that every student heads back to class ready to learn and grow.”

The drive welcomes donations of brand-new school supplies, including:

• Backpacks: new, unused
