School Supplies - Let's help out!

Remember the joy of getting a new set of school supplies? At Community Partners of Dallas, our kids are not approaching the start of school with the same excitement and support. Many will go back to school wishing for a new backpack or new uniforms-- they just want to fit in. This year we will provide backpacks with age appropriate school supplies and uniforms to more than 2,400 abused and neglected children.

We need your help.

Donate. School supply donations can be delivered to any of The Container Store Metroplex locations through Sunday, August 31st or at Community Partners of Dallas’ Central Location through Friday, August 29th. Backpacks, writing tablets, glue bottles, index cards and pencil cases are some of the items we need most. View a complete list of supplies on our website. Or, if you  prefer, just make  a donation, and we'll happily do the shopping for you. Because of our bulk purchasing every $1 donated is equal to $4 worth of school supplies and uniforms! Organize a school supply drive. Hold a drive with any group of friends...your book club, professional association, Sunday School class, soccer team or scout troop...just to name a few!  Get your company involved. Do you know a company looking for a great summer-fun project? Just collect school supplies and/or monetary donations for a few weeks and deliver them to the CPD Central Location by August 29th. Interested in more information?  Contact Corinne at (214) 624-7588 or corinne@cpdtx.org.

Thanks so much for helping us  stop the abuse and start the healing!
