Support the 2018 Beacon Back to School Drive
Believe it or not, the start of the school year is just around the corner, which means stocking up on school supplies. As a way to reduce financial stress for families, we are looking to create 200 backpacks (100 for elementary students and 100 for middle/high school students) filled with school supplies so families have one less expense to worry about. 200 backpacks will ensure we can supply all the children who are guests of Families Moving Forward during the coming school year. We need congregations to volunteer and fill backpacks with supplies as part of Beacon’s Back to School Drive. You can download a list of needed supplies by clicking on the button below.
For more information, please contact Jackie Tyson. We will start collecting backpacks at the North Minneapolis Program Center on August 20. Contact the program center at (612) 529-2185 ext.13 to find out hours for delivery.
