CCAF Hosting School Supply Drive

By  | 

 

    Central Community Assistance Foundation (CCAF) is now taking donations of school supplies for students in need (public, private or home schooled) and who live in the City of Central.  Families of these students must qualify for assistance through a CCAF Application which can be picked up at the Central Library on Joor or the CCSS School Board Office on Hooper Road (behind Capitol One Bank). School supplies and uniforms will be distributed around the first of August.
    Items may be brought to Walgreens at the corner of Sullivan and Greenwell Springs, Central Christian Academy on Joor, Raising Cane’s on Sullivan, Central Chamber of Commerce (12416 Hooper Road) or the Central Community School Board Office on Hooper. Items needed: Backpacks, pencils, crayons, glue sticks, notebooks, paper towels, Kleenex, binders, loose leaf paper, etc.
    The school uniform drive last month was highly successful.  CCAF is still taking donated uniforms at the School Board Office.
    Please send items before July 24th, so volunteers can sort the supplies by appropriate grade level and distribute prior to school openings.  For more information, visit the CCAF website at www.helpcentralstudents.com  or call (225) 571-3337 or (225) 650-2906.
