Class Act Lucas
County
Helping start the school year off right
Class Act Lucas County, a
group of community service agencies, churches, businesses
and organizations are teaming up to make it easier for
Toledo-area students to receive the supplies they need to go
back to school in August. They are partnering to simplify
the process for parents to apply for back-to-school
assistance, and to make it easier for individuals,
businesses and other groups to donate supplies or volunteer
their time.
Class Act Lucas County is utilizing the familiar 2-1-1
system to distribute all of the necessary information. By
calling 2-1-1, parents and those interested in helping can
get all the information they need.
Comprised of over 20 organizations, Class Act Lucas County
brings together organizations that participate in the
following: they provide backpack and school supplies, are
funders for backpacks and school supplies or are recipient
organizations.
Formed in 2016 after last year’s backpack distributions, the
member organizations wanted to work together to cut back on
duplicated services allowing everyone to serve more students
in need in Lucas County. Class Act Lucas County wants to
help students start the school year off right. Remember
simply call 2-1-1 for information about how to receive a
backpack or help a student in need.
