We were able to get a dozen students off to a good start this year.

Thank you for your support.

Next year we’ll sponsor 15.

 

Here is a sampling of the items typically included  in the Back-to-School Package for each child:
Don’t purchase any items until you have the name of a child and the appropriate sizes from Ronnie.

New Clothing for School: Backpacks:
Shirt and Pants (boy or girl) Colored Pencils Ruler
Skirt or Dress (girl) Erasers Crayons
Socks Lunch Box/Bag Markers
Underwear Scissors Folder
  Gluesticks/Tape Notebooks

Please help children in homeless families get off on the right foot in school this year. Sponsor a child in the UUCWC/HomeFront back to school program. 

 As a sponsor you would agree to provide a backpack filled with school supplies and one or more back to school outfits. A list of the items to be purchased along with the appropriate sizes will be provided. A sample list is available here.  

Let us know if you’d like to help asap. Completed backpacks will be due August 15th.

 Please contact Ronnie Dobrowolski for the name of a child or more information

Before a child can learn the basics, 
he has to have the basics.
