Thank you to all who donated for our Back to School Backpack Program for the 2022-23 school year! With your generosity, we were able to create more than 900 backpacks full of school supplies for families in need. Stay tuned for our next drive!

For the last 15 years CCSA, through its affiliated churches and other donors, has provided backpacks and school supplies for children in need.

Each backpack is filled with 1 of 2 grade appropriate supplies:  One set for K thru 2^nd grade – and a separate set of supplies for 3^rd through 9^th graders.  Parents are especially appreciative of resource materials at this time of year when schools reopen and books, clothing, and other ancillary costs of education take center stage.

If you would like to take part in this essential program here’s how to proceed:

First, decide if you want to prepare a pack for K thru 2^nd graders – or 3^rd thru 9^th grad. 1 of each is more than welcomed!

Then, click here for a list of K thru 2^nd grade supplies to put in the backpack.
