Ready to Learn—the Mound school supply drive put on every year by WeCAN, an organization supporting and providing resources for low-income families in the community—is accepting donations this month.
The school supply drive has been held annually for over 20 years and accepts backpacks, folders, notebooks, binders, markers and highlighters along with any other school supplies kids might need to be successful throughout the year.
Lorrie Ham, office manager of WeCAN, says last year’s drive provided 233 backpacks to children in need.
Along with the WeCAN office, local businesses and churches are also serving as drop-off sites; check online or call for more details.
