United Way School Tools

United Way “School Tools” is designed to give students of low-income families the supplies they need to begin the school year - school supplies that are needed to start the first day of school ready to learn. Each participating company is given a school bus box filled with names and brief descriptions of students.  Employees then select a name of a child and prepare a school tools bag. Corporate sponsor BI-LO Charities provides backpacks to every student. United Way distributes the bags of supplies and bookbags to children in time to begin the new school year. This project begins in mid- June and wraps up in early August.

If you and/or your company are interested in participating, please contact a member of United Way’s campaign staff.
