(July 29, 2021) Join La Casa de Don Pedro for our annual school supply drive to support Newark’s children as they get ready to return to full time in-person school this fall!
We’ll be collecting school supplies and cash donations until August 13th with a goal to distribute quality backpacks full of school supplies to over 1,000 Newark students. They range from Pre-K students to young adults in La Casa’s alternative high school. We will also be distributing backpacks to families who get vaccinated at our upcoming vaccination events in August, as one other way to help encourage more people to get vaccinated and increase Newark’s vaccination rate.
