California Credit Union has launched a school supplies drive to help local students start the school year ready to learn in association with NBC4 and Telemundo 52’s Supporting Our Schools back-to-school donation drive.
Through July 27, California Credit Union invites community members to make a difference in a student’s life by dropping off new school supplies at any branch location in Los Angeles and Orange counties. A complete list of California Credit Union locations is available here. All supplies will be distributed to students at a special community event at the Southeast-Rio Vista Maywood YMCA in Maywood on Thursday, August 1.
“There is simply no better way to prepare our young people for a successful future than by supporting them in their education,” said California Credit Union President/CEO Steve O’Connell. “We are excited to again participate in this important program, and encourage our community to join us in helping local students start the school year right and supporting their path to learning and literacy.”
School supplies needed include:
| § Backpacks | § Notebooks |
| § Pens, pencils, markers, and crayons | § Binders/folders |
| § Paper/graph paper | § Rulers, erasers, glue sticks, etc. |
