Backpack School Supply Collection 2022 – Collection Ends August 7, 2022
3 Ways to Contribute
It’s time for the Backpack School Supply Collection. We hope to again be able to supply stuffed backpacks to students in the Chester and Upper Darby Communities. Last year we filled just over 365 backpacks. Over the past three years this has become an Interfaith effort with several faith communities joining what was started with the Lutheran Churches in Delaware County. Here are 3 ways you can support the collection this year.
1. One way to make a contribution this year is to use the links below to an Amazon Wishlist – School Supplies. Place an order and it will be shipped directly to the crew that will assembly the backpacks. Links to Wishlist
2. You can also make a monetary contribution. Checks can be mailed to School Supplies c/o Jody Troyan, 1201 Swarthmore Ave., Folsom, PA 19033. Checks should be made payable to Grace Lutheran Church – Broomall. Dave Ehret is again serving as Treasurer of this effort.
3. As in past years you can do the shopping and drop off the supplies at Reformation.
