Even though the summer has barely begun, we are busy getting ready for the next school year with our Back 2 School Campaign!
Children living in group homes and shelters that may face an uncertain future, need reassurance they will have ample school supplies and a new book bag, even if they aren't quite ready for a new school year! If students arrive on the first day of school physically and emotionally prepared to learn, their chances of success are greater! For more than 32 years, our steadfast goal remains that we will provide homeless and underserved children in our community with the tools they need to learn….and succeed!
We need enthusiastic people to spread the word about our Back 2 School campaign and rally friends, family, work colleagues, neighborhood, church, and social/civic groups to collect NEW book bags and school supplies. Every item collected will go to children in need and every donation is appreciated.
We welcome individuals and groups to rise up to the challenge of helping deserving kids! Start your collection today and plan to drop off your donations on July 23-24. .&nbsp;
Drop off your donations at our office:&nbsp;
July 23th or July 24th
 10AM - 3PM
Children's Restoration Network, 11285 Elkins Road, Building C - Suite 4, Roswell, GA 30076
