Volunteer: School Supplies needed!

The Women's Shelter is always in need of school supplies. The children at the shelter normally stay for about 30 days. We want them to be able to take their school supplies with them when they leave the Shelter. This means that every day new children are arriving at the shelter while others are leaving. We are in a constant need of school supplies. We are looking for backpacks for boys and girls as well as basic school supplies. We are in need of rulers, pens, pencils, erasers,etc.  We want each child to be able to attend school with the proper supplies. Even though school starts in September we need supplies all year long.  The school supplies should cover from toddler to high school.  We always need backpacks for all ages as well.
