Phoenix Family's 2009 Back to School Drive has begun! Every year, Phoenix Family provides much-needed school supplies to nearly 1,900 children living in low-income housing communities so they can get off to a good start when school starts in the fall.

We will be distributing supplies the first two weeks of August 2009.

WE NEED YOU!

In order to reach our goal and to ensure that every child living in or near a property where Phoenix Family offers services, we need your help.

For just $5, you can provide a child with a backpack full of supplies to help start the year off ready to succeed!

We are in need of more basic supplies, including: beginner pencils, beginner writing tablets, composition notebooks, gallon- and quart-size storage bags and other basic school supplies. Please join us!

If you are interested in participating in this year's drive, please contact Laurel at 816 561 1033 ext. 319 for more information and/or to arrange for the pick-up of items and donations.
