Halfway through 2024, we are continuing our energetic celebration of 20 years of community service helping disadvantaged children. Following the recent end of the school year and the arrival of July, vacation plans and summer camps are in full swing. But the arrival of July also means school will be starting again in less than two months and young students will again need new supplies. Providing such items is an additional expense that can be challenging for low-income families.
Assistance League has been inviting the community to share in our 20th anniversary celebration by contributing to our monthly wish lists. This month’s wish list includes a variety of school supplies, such as notebooks, pens and pencils, crayons, rulers and glue sticks. By making a contribution from the wish list you can lighten the burden for families who struggle to afford such items.
Use this link: https://tiny.alnv.org/SchoolSupplies to make your selection or scan the QR code on the flyer. Please select Assistance League of Northern Virginia as the shipping address to ensure prompt delivery. Your generosity will help give a child in need a positive start to the school year. Join Assistance League in embracing the words of Bernard Meltzer: “There is no better exercise for your heart than reaching down and helping to lift someone up.”
