The Salvation Army Hosts Back-to-School
Supply Drives for Keiki-in-Need
For kids preparing for the upcoming school year, school supplies remain critical to their success. The Salvation Army has adapted its services to ensure that children in every community can continue receiving the educational support they deserve. The Salvation Army wants to help as many families as possible. We are seeking back-to-school supplies for keiki-in-need with supply drives being held across the state of Hawaii in July and August.
Requested items include: backpacks (most needed), colored markers, colored pencils, composition notebooks, crayons, erasers, facial tissue, glue, glue sticks, highlighters, school boxes, paper towels, pencils, pencil pouches, pens (black, blue and red), portfolios, rulers, scissors, small calculators, and wide-rule binder paper.
