Help back the bus to send kids to school with what they need

Beginning Sunday, June 15, through Friday, August 15, SPAAR’s Community Engagement Committee is collecting backpacks and school supplies for donation to nonprofits that serve families and children. Staff from Wilder Foundation in St. Paul anticipate high demand for notebooks and backpacks.

Members can help make this possible by:

• Coordinating a team collection or drop off location at the office.
• Door knocking to ask others to help Pack the Bus!
• Checking in with former clients to help support the community.
• Collecting items at their neighborhood National Night Out events.

How to donate:

• Shop and deliver items to SPAAR by Friday, August 15.
• Email spaar@spaar.comto donate via credit card.
• Host an office or neighborhood collection box.
