To break the cycle of poverty, our Capuchin Community Services’ kids need a good education. Our children must be adequately outfitted with school supplies. Can you help?
We gather supplies in late July and early August, with distribution in August.
If time is at a premium, shop our Target Registry or Amazon Wishlist. You do the shopping, and it’s shipped right to Capuchin Community Services to assist our kids.
Please mail donations to:
House of PeaceAtt’n: School Supply Drive
