Summer is in full swing and we are already thinking ahead to the 2024 School Year which can only mean one thing, it’s almost time for our annual Back 2 School Bash sponsored by the Wylie East Fork Rotary Club! We are so excited about this event that brings the entire community together, to serve the children and get them ready to have a great year of learning.

Last year we served over 400 students and expect to see that number increase this year. They need supplies ranging from backpacks, pencils, crayons, and more. We know how much you love the kiddos and want to see them happy and healthy, here is your chance to have a part in setting them up for a successful school year.

The beginning of the school year is also when we start up our “Backpack Program”, we serve several local schools in the community through this program. Counselors at these schools have identified children who go home on the weekend and don’t have access to food. We send bags of food to the schools, which get put into the student’s backpacks so that they don’t go hungry over the weekend.

We have 3 ways you can help:

1. Check out our School Supply List below, purchase items, and drop them off at the pantry by July 20th.

2. Shop our Amazon Wishlist for school supplies and food for the backpack program, you can have them shipped directly to us.

3. Donate via the link below to help us purchase school items and food for the backpack program.
