 Savvy Simple Savers
Back to School Donation Drive

Wednesday, August 15th at 10:00 am
Yelm Timberland Library

Each year, Yelm Community Services organizes School Kits for Kids.  They purchase school supplies and hand out these kits to families in need.  The Savvy Simple Savers has the opportunity to help support our community with this event through donations of school supplies and volunteering our time to put the kits together.  Below, you will see a list of the items needed.  If you need help finding great deals on these items, there are many coupon blogs that are featuring weekly updates with all the best prices for multiple stores.  You can find a list of coupon blog sites here. 

Bring all your donations to our event on August 15th and they will be delivered directly to Yelm Community Services.  Please help us spread the word throughout our community and encourage others to donate too.  You will find a copy of the flyer for this event here.  If you are unable to join us for our Back to School Donation Drive, but would like to donate school supplies, please email savvysimplesavers@hotmail.com to make other arrangements.   

The date for putting these kits together will be scheduled soon and I will post that information as soon as possible.  This is another great opportunity for The Savvy Simple Savers to support families in our community and I am excited to see the difference we can make!
