The Avon Education Foundation is raising money to ensure that students in need get the opportunity to shop for their back to school supplies in a fun, one day event. Students are paired with a shopper, and after receiving their supply list, get to shop for their backpack and make choices on which supplies they want. They also receive a free book, free goody bag, personal hygiene items and will receive a free breakfast or lunch. There will be a resource area for parents to meet with the superintendent, principals, nurses, school police, and get information on helpful resources right here in our community.

It will cost about $30 per student and we anticipate 2,000 students in attendance. How many students can you help support? $30 will provide each student with everything they need to return to school on July 29.
