Student Assistance Drive Update


Each year, NEEDS holds a Student Assistance Drive to help provide school supplies and warm winter clothing to students in our community. Teachers and administrators in the Deer Park, Princeton, and Sycamore districts know all too well how many families struggle to afford these necessities — so they’re thrilled to receive gift cards enabling them to purchase exactly what their students need!

As you can see from these photos, there were big smiles when NEEDS volunteers stopped by each school to distribute gift cards. NEEDS is so grateful to the many donors who contributed to this year’s successful drive!
