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.
