School Supply & Resupply Drive

Equipping Students. Supporting Teachers. Strengthening Classrooms.

CCEF's School Supply & Resupply Drive equips students and teachers with the essential supplies they need for a successful school year.

Each summer, our School Supply Drive helps students begin the year prepared with the tools they need to learn while also providing teachers with many of the classroom supplies they need to create engaging learning environments. Our winter Resupply Drive replenishes classrooms as student and teacher supplies run low throughout the school year.

Together, these drives reduce financial pressure on families and teachers, equip classrooms with essential resources, strengthen teaching and learning, and demonstrate the power of a community investing in its schools.

How to Support the 2026 School Supply Drive

Why a School Supply Drive Matters

• Every student deserves to begin the school year with the supplies they need to learn, create, and succeed.
• Purchasing school supplies can create a financial burden for many families.
• Teachers often fill classroom gaps with their own money.
• Community support helps students arrive prepared and allows educators to focus on teaching.
• A fully supplied classroom builds student confidence and creates a stronger learning environment from the first day of school.
• When students have the tools to succeed, our entire community benefits.

Join us in helping every child start the school year ready to learn.
