Back-To-School Drive 2024
2024-07-01 08:00 - 2024-08-02 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Erie Neighborhood House – Community Center, 1701 W Superior St., Chicago, IL, 60622, United States
As the new school year approaches, Erie Neighborhood House is excited to launch our Annual Back-to-School Drive 2024. Our goal is to ensure that every student in our community starts the school year with the supplies they need to succeed.
Many families in our community struggle to afford basic school supplies, which can impact a child’s ability to learn and thrive. By coming together, we can make a significant difference in these students’ lives and provide them with the tools they need to excel academically.
We invite you to join us in this important initiative. There are two impactful ways you can contribute:

Host a Drive: Organize a school supply drive in your workplace, neighborhood, or community group. Collect essential items such as backpacks, notebooks, pens, pencils, crayons, and other classroom necessities. Hosting a drive is a great way to engage your community and make a collective impact. If you’re interested in hosting a drive, please email volunteer@eriehouse.org to get started.
Make a Donation: If hosting a drive isn’t feasible, consider making a monetary donation. Your financial support allows us to purchase supplies in bulk, ensuring we can meet the diverse needs of our students. Every dollar counts and makes a difference. You can donate directly through our campaign page at Erie House Back to School Drive.

Your generosity and support will help us continue to provide essential resources and opportunities for the families we serve.
Thank you for being a part of our mission to empower and uplift our community with our Back-To-School Drive 2024. Let’s make this school year the best one yet for our students!
