School supplies for Navajo, Hopi & Apache youth
Donation protected
It's back-to-school time in Arizona and we are looking to provide school supplies for students on tribal land in AZ. School supplies can cost up to $50 per student, many families don't have the funds for those extra expenses which is where we come in. We work with community members in Kayenta, Chilchinbeto and White Clay on the Navajo Nation, the village of Bacavi on Hopi and Whiteriver on White Mountain Apache lands to purchase and deliver supplies to the students who most need them.
Each backpack is filled with grade-appropriate supplies for students identified by community members. We would like to supply 100 students with the materials they need to be successful this school year.
This is our third year providing students with the necessities. We have delivered over 150 backpacks so far, taking the stress from families who are struggling to purchase the needed supplies.
With your donation, we will purchase:
Backpacks
Notebooks
Folders
Pencils, Pens
Crayons and Markers
Calculators and more
These supplies will be distributed in the communities mentioned above the week of August 7th. Please help us today to ensure students in our communities are ready for success.
