Back to School Donation

Covering Kids and Families coordinates the Back to School Family Day held at the Marion County Health Department. The event is in its 9th year and is considered one of the largest Back to School events in the city. This year we anticipate attendance to reach beyond 20,000 participants. To ensure that each child in attendance has all of the school supplies he or she needs, we need your help! We are asking for school supplies and monetary donations. If you are interested in donating, the items are listed below:

  • Backpacks
  • Notebooks
  • Folders
  • Loose-leaf paper
  • Spiral notebooks
  • Crayons
  • Pencils
  • Pens
  • Scissors
  • Glue sticks
  • Crayon boxes
  • Hand sanitizer
  • Individual packets of tissues

    If you have supplies to donate, please contact Pamela Humes, Program Director of Covering Kids and Families of Central Indiana by email at phumes@hhcorp.org or by phone at (317) 221-3117 for delivery or pick-up arrangements.
