A school supply drive is an easy way to impact students and their learning experience profoundly. Make school a better place for students by the simple act of providing school supplies.<\/span><\/p>\n Our Back2School Program aims to make schooling more accessible to students in need and ensure they can excel by providing support to students, parents, and teachers in the form of tools and resources, grants and funding, and educational seminars.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_fullwidth_header][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ background_image=”https:\/\/icnarelief.org\/back2school\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2021\/06\/b2s-2.png” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” global_colors_info=”{}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”THE CHALLENGE WE’RE FACING” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”DM Sans|700|||||||” title_text_align=”center” title_font_size=”45px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_divider color=”#000000″ divider_weight=”2px” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”25%” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”DM Sans||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” module_alignment=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Every year, thousands of children walk into school on the first day without a backpack, notebooks, or even pencils\u2014feeling unprepared, different, and left behind.<\/p>\n At ICNA Relief, we know this reality too well. Nearly 60% of the families we serve live on less than $20,000 a year, far below the national poverty line. When parents are forced to choose between rent and groceries or school supplies, education often suffers quietly in the background.<\/p>\n And the impact goes deeper than just missing materials.<\/p>\n Studies show that students who lack basic supplies experience increased stress, lower academic performance, and a sense of not belonging in the classroom. They\u2019re more likely to be absent, disengaged, and struggle with self-esteem. In contrast, children who start school with the right tools are more confident, focused, and ready to learn. That backpack? It\u2019s more than just supplies\u2014it\u2019s a boost of dignity, a sense of normalcy, and a chance to thrive.<\/p>\n At ICNA Relief, we believe no child should feel less on the first day of school. Your support makes it possible for children to walk in prepared\u2014not just to learn, but to belong.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”gcid-f468a792-bfed-466d-9a94-f3003d1d7bdc” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-f468a792-bfed-466d-9a94-f3003d1d7bdc%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”SUPPLY DRIVE 101″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”DM Sans|700|||||||” title_text_align=”center” title_text_color=”#FFFFFF” title_font_size=”45px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”student_success” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” global_colors_info=”{}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_slider _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_slide heading=”STEP 1\/6: GET HELP FROM YOUR FRIENDS” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h2″ header_font=”DM Sans|700|||||||” header_font_size=”45px” body_font=”DM Sans||||||||” body_font_size=”18px” background_enable_color=”off” background_layout=”light” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n Whether you organize the drive on your own or make the organizing a group effort, you will need to reach out to a lot of people in order to make the school supply drive a success.

With last year's global pandemic, high unemployment, and more than 30 million students enrolled in the free and reduced meal programs, many parents are unable to provide the basic school supplies their children need to be effective. In addition, schools across the country are facing severe budget cuts and lack the funding to purchase necessary supplies.
