Back to School Supply Drive

7/10/2010

When: July 10th through August 10th

Back to School Drive

At the Bakersfield Rescue Mission, we believe education is the key to success. In order to succeed in school, one must be prepared. Equipping children with the proper school supplies will be the first step toward a successful school year. Our goal this year, with your help, is to provide back to school supplies for inner city children.

The children receiving the school supplies are part of Height Street Baptist Church youth outreach program, and the children of the men and women of the Mission?s Residential Program. Their families lack the ability to get the necessary supplies their children need to start school.

We are asking for your help. Donations of school supplies, including paper, pencils, pens, glue, notebooks, and more can be brought to ?
