School Supply Drive

KAFE cares about our community!  With kids going back to school over the next few weeks, many will do so WITHOUT the supplies they need to succeed this year.  Help Stuff the Bus with school supplies on Wednesday, August 22nd!  You can help kids start the year on an even playing field by dropping off your donation of school supplies at:

CARL COZIER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
1330 Lincoln Street in Bellingham (just off Lakeway Drive)

Since the Bellingham School District provides supplies for kids, their big push is for backpacks.  However, with other districts in the county that don’t provide supplies, you can donate ANYTHING.

Donations will be distributed through the Opportunity Council to kids in Whatcom County.

The items they are in most need of include:
•Wide-tipped Markers
•Colored Pencils
•Wide-ruled Notebook Paper
•Scissors
•Pencil Sharpeners
•Scientific calculators
