Our goal is to make sure that every child who needs school supplies has them.  We have not yet reached our goal.

 

How can my school participate and receive school supplies?

 

If your school is interested in receiving donated school supplies for your students please contact Jay Garant in Fairfax County Public Schools Office of Business and Community Partnerships at 571-423-1225,  or Swaim Pessaud in Fairfax County’s Office of Public Private Partnerships (OP3) to see if we can connect you with one of the partnered organizations.  Swaim can be reached at 703-324-5171.

 

We’re already receiving school supplies.  Do we need to do anything?

 

If your school is already working with one of the participating non-profit organizations listed, we’re asking is that you contact them in June to share summer contact information.  By sharing this information, you’ll be able to coordinate the pickup or delivery of supplies in July and August.

Important:  To work with a school, the Collect for Kids team must be able to contact and work with someone from your school in late July or early August.  A single point of contact is our greatest challenge.
