School Supplies Request from Notre Dame Student
I am a former SFA student and current grade 11 student at Notre Dame Regional Secondary organizing a school supply donation initiative to support children who may not have access to the materials they need to learn and grow.
This project was inspired by my mother, who works in the inner city of the Surrey school district. She spoke about students who arrive at school without any supplies or do not have extra materials at home. Hearing this deeply moved me, and I felt compelled to take action.
Like many students, I received a school supply package each year and brought those items home at the end of the school year. Over time, this led to a buildup of school supplies, such as crayons, pencils, sharpeners, and scissors, that are still in good condition but no longer needed. The goal is to collect these extra supplies, clean and organize them into kits, and donate them to students who would benefit from them.
We will be collecting donations at the school office from June 8th to June 12th.
Thank you for helping me make a positive impact in our wider community.
