As the school year winds down, we are already looking ahead to September!
With support from the North Eastern Ontario Children's Foundation, North Eastern Ontario Family and Children's Services (NEOFACS) is excited to launch our annual Back-to-School Supply Drive Campaign!
Help ensure children and youth in our communities have the tools they need for a successful start to the 2025-2026 school year.
Help reduce some of the added stress and anxiety that the back-to-school transition can cause for children, youth, and their families.
From now until July 31, 2025, donate new school supplies to any NEOFACS office location or make an online donation on CanadaHelps.org.
Your support helps ease the stress and anxiety that back-to-school season can bring for families facing challenges.
The following items are always greatly appreciated:
- Backpacks
- Lunch bags
- Scientific calculators
- Geometry sets and rulers
- Crayons and markers
- Pens, pencils and erasers
- Notebooks and lined paper
- Other essential school supplies
Collected items will be distributed to children and youth in need throughout our communities in August. Please stay tuned for details on how to request and pick up items.
For more information, please contact Rachèle Pelletier, Program Supervisor, at 1-705-363-5376 or rachele.pelletier@neofacs.org
