The Salvation Army in Kent is holding a “Back to School” school supplies drive from August 1 through 31. Please help support local low-income families by donating school supplies. This is particularly important this year as the economy takes it toll on area residents and unemployment continues to grow.

Supplies needed for Kent, Auburn, Covington, Algona and Pacific area schools:

Wide rule paper
Pencils & pens
Glue
Backpacks
Crayons
Erasers
Wipes
Markers
Calculators
And more…!

The Salvation Army has a detailed supply list by age group. To sign-up or to make a donation, call the Kent Salvation Army office at 253-852-4983, Monday through Friday from 10 am to 2 pm.

Thank you for supporting our children!
