Even though we cannot personally collect supplies and bring them into the office, Classroom Central has a great set up where we can virtually purchase them and still help kids in need this school year.  You can choose to donate money that goes towards Classroom Central, or you can choose to donate school supplies.  It is quick, easy, and you can do it without leaving home.  Please join me in contributing to this worthwhile cause.  The format of school has changed, but the need for supplies is still there - now, more than ever.  Thank you!

Classroom Central equips students in need to effectively learn by collecting and distributing free school supplies to their teachers. We serve teachers and students in nearly 200 schools across six school districts in the Charlotte Region.

While most of our region’s students will be learning remotely, a computer with wifi isn’t the only supply they’ll need. Remote students will still take notes with pens, pencils and paper. They’ll need pocket folders, binders, and backpacks to stay organized. And they’ll take art class with crayons, markers, and glue. Remote learning has actually increased our community’s need for supplies because classrooms can no longer share materials, and now even more families are experiencing financial hardships. See how Classroom Central is taking action this year by reading their FAQs.

Donate to our virtual supply drive to help Classroom Central prepare 127,000 local students for back to school.
