#BeTheRipple: 2nd ANNUAL SCHOOL SUPPLY DRIVE THROUGH AUGUST 23

Thank you to everyone who has already donated to our second annual school supply drive! This year, we are again collecting school supplies to be given to elementary students in Madison. We have set up several drop off locations around the Madison area, with the help of the Madison Police Department and Cress Funeral and Cremation Services. Chief Mike Koval shared information about the supply drive on his blog recently.

In addition to donating basic supplies, this year we’ve added the option to sponsor a student from John Muir or Carl Sandburg Elementary schools! Simply purchase the supplies listed and note that you’d like them given to a student (e.g., Kindergarten Student Package – Muir Elementary).

We are asking for name-brand school supplies (Crayola, Elmer’s, etc.). They will be distributed before the first day of school.
