KidSmart’s Gift of Heart Supply Drive
KidSmart has made it halfway through the school year, and as February approaches, we are gearing up for our 5th annual Gift of Heart Supply Drive. Last fall we distributed school supplies to 45,000 kids in St. Louis, but as the spring semester begins, the need for supplies is now greater than ever.
The Gift of Heart Supply Drive takes place each year throughout the month of February at churches, synagogues, and other places of worship. The supplies raised by this drive help to restock, replenish, and resupply the KidSmart Free Store, so that we can continue to supply our kids with the tools they need to succeed through the end of the school year.
The top 12 most needed supplies are:
-
pencils
-
paper
-
markers
-
crayons
-
glue
-
pens
-
colored pencils
-
two-pocket folders
-
scissors
-
spiral notebooks
-
supply boxes
-
backpacks
