Back to School Supply Drive
Donors
Support Local Students This School Year
Back-to-school season can be exciting for students but may create financial stress for many families. Today, families spend an average of more than $890 per child on school supplies and back-to-school essentials, making it one of the largest annual household expenses. Rising costs for school supplies, food, housing, and utilities have made it even more difficult for many Jefferson County families to prepare for the school year.
With your support, the Action Center will provide school supplies to more than 5,000 students across Jefferson County, helping them start the school year confident, prepared, and ready to learn. We work directly with Jeffco Public Schools to identify the supplies students need most and ensure resources reach families efficiently.
Through our online Back to School Supply Drive, you can purchase discounted backpacks and supply kits that are shipped directly to the Action Center for distribution. Because this program is 100% community-funded, every donation helps local students access the tools they need for a successful school year.
Don't wait—join us in giving every child a strong start to the school year. Shop our online supply drive now and help transform the lives of students and families in Jefferson County. Your action today means a brighter future for a child tomorrow.
