Jackson Oaks Eatery School Supply Drive

to Aug 3

Jackson Oaks Eatery School Supply Drive

The Back to School drive is an exciting community initiative that we are proud to announce! During the month of July, we will be collecting school supplies and clear backpacks.

To celebrate the start of the new academic year, we will host a Back to School Bash in August. We are seeking a barber to donate their time to provide free haircuts for male students and a hairstylist to offer their services for female students.

Our aim is to ensure that our students are well-prepared for success. We believe it is crucial to invest in their future and demonstrate our commitment to their success. We have already received some supplies and volunteers, but we still need additional donations and assistance with organization, setup, and distribution.

Let us come together as a community and show our young people that we are committed to their success!
