Help Local Kids Prepare for School

Back-to-school supplies needed for IEUW School Tools Program

Imagine trying to complete a school assignment, but not having basic supplies like a pen, pencil or paper. Without your help, thousands of kids here in our community may be going back to school without the supplies they need to learn and succeed. IEUW's School Tools program provides NEW supplies throughout the school year to local students and classrooms in need. Last year, we distributed more than $2.5 million worth of supplies to Inland Empire schools. But we need your help! Join with us and your church, business, sports team or community group and help us collect the supplies needed by local students! LEARN MORE
