A Reason to Smile

It’s that time of the year again! That’s right, kids are getting ready to return to school. This is an exciting time! However, some families do not have the supplies necessary for their children to enjoy school. This is why Stratford House of Blessing runs the Off To School Smiling program each year.

When a child receives a backpack kit, it prepares them for the school year and can raise their self-esteem as they start a new chapter in their education. With your support, we can start the school year off right!

Let’s work together to give kids the supplies to enjoy their year. If you are able to donate new school items, we hope to have the kits ready to go by the beginning of August to give families lots of time to prepare. However, we accept donations year-round – spare items go towards next year’s kits. Thanks!
