BACK PACK AND SCHOOL SUPPLY DRIVE
September 1, 2011
As school districts across North America tighten their purse
strings, classroom supplies get older and shabbier until there
aren’t enough to go around the classroom. With limited school
supplies available, teachers and other parents end up spending
their own hard-earned money to buy pencils, pens, notebooks, and
textbooks for students whose families cannot afford them. On top of
paying for school supplies, teachers also usually end up paying for
photocopies, chalk, blackboard markers, posters, and classroom
décor out of their own pockets.
Bryn Athyn Athletics is committed to helping local schools by
collecting new and gently used back packs for students in the
Philadelphia schools.
