Back-to-School Drive

Over the summer months, we invite you to extend a helping hand to children in your local community by donating new backpacks, pens, pencils, calculators, binders and more to your local KVC office!
By donating a backpack filled with new school supplies, you are giving a child the best possible start to a successful school year!
