school supplies

In recent years, CCAR YPN has collected over 200 backpacks filled with more than 1,000 pencils, 150 notebooks, markers, and other essential school supplies. These resources have been distributed to students, equipping them with the tools they need to succeed as they start a new school year. Donate today and help us continue to provide the necessary resources and supplies to ensure young students have what they need to stay on track and thrive.
