AWARE back to school drive


  • St. John's Lutheran Church 312 South Third Street Evansville, WI (map)

To help local low-income families get the school supplies their children need to start the year, AWARE is looking for your help. Backpack tags will be available at St. John’s and around the community beginning on Thursday, August 1. Each tag lists the gender, interests, and favorite color of a child along with the supplies needed to begin the school year in their grade level. Select a tag and “go back in time” to relive the excitement of shopping for new school supplies, picking up as many of the items listed as possible. Not a shopper? Tax deductible donations can be sent to AWARE in Evansville. Donations of supplies should be returned to St. John’s by Monday, August 19, for AWARE’s August 21 distribution. If you or someone you know needs help getting school supplies, contact Amy Floan at aware@community-action.org.
