Back2School Program

 

Sign-ups for our Back2School program have closed. If you haven't registered and are still in need of school supplies, please come to our final event at the La Crosse YMCA on Saturday, August 16th anytime from 10 am-1 pm.

There will be four Back2School events where families can pick up supplies.

  • Erickson BGC - July 29: 5:30 pm - 7 pm (1331 Clinton Street, La Crosse)
  • La Crosse Center – August 5: 10 am – 12 pm (Arena Floor)
  • La Crosse Center - August 5: 1 pm - 7 pm (Arena Floor)
  • Mathy BGC - August 12: 5:30 pm - 7 pm (811 8th Street South, La Crosse)

I WOULD LIKE TO JOIN IN SERVICE! HOW CAN I HELP?

  • Donate backpacks and/or school supplies
  • Make a monetary donation so we can purchase needed supplies
  • Purchase Scrip from your local Parish to donate for school supplies (this benefits the parish as well as the children in need)

Our Back2School Program distribution day is coming up quickly! We are in need of volunteers to help with setting up supplies and backpacks on Monday, August 4 from 1-3 pm. We also need volunteers to help families choose their school supplies on Tuesday, August 5 during 4 times slots: 9:45 am-12 pm, 12:45-3 pm, 2:45-5 pm, and 4:45-7 pm.

If you are interested in helping out, you can sign up here: https://shorturl.at/Z7Lge

Thank you so much for your consideration and help as we could not fulfill this need without your generosity!

I KNOW A FAMILY THAT NEEDS HELP!
