Lucas County Children Services Hosts Back to School Drive
Help LCCS collect school supplies for
families in need
Special to The Truth
Summer is in full swing but it is never too early to start
thinking about back to school. Buying supplies is the first
step to getting ready which is why Lucas County Children
Services (LCCS) is asking members of the community to help
provide supplies for children in need.
Many of the families working with LCCS lack the resources to
send their children to the first day of school with all the
supplies they need. LCCS is collecting donations that will
be distributed to the growing number of children in need of
supplies. The next time you go to the store consider buying
one or two items to donate.
LCCS is looking for NEW: Backpacks/book bags; spiral
notebooks, pocket folders, binders and binder paper; #2
pencils, pens (blue or black), colored pencils; erasers,
pencil pouches; yellow highlighters, 24 pack crayons; dry
erase markers, washable markers; rulers, scissors, white
glue and glues sticks; tissues, disinfectant wipes
Donations can be dropped off at Lucas County Children
Services, 705
Adams St. (between Erie and
Ontario Streets), downtown Toledo.
