Tools for School Success Backpack Drive

An Annual Project to Provide School Supplies to Students Served by Wilder

Through the Tools for School Success backpack drive, volunteers and donors gather backpacks and supplies to make sure that every student served by Wilder has school supplies. 

A core priority of Wilder is preparing and enabling low income children and their families to succeed in school, work and life. Providing backpacks and school supplies to the children who are served and touched by Wilder means these kids are better equipped to start the school year on track and focus on learning.

Thank you to everyone who helps make this drive possible!
