Palatine Township's 'Back To School Supplies Campaign'
Palatine Township has kicked off the 35th annual Back To School Supplies Campaign. We are asking the community to help Palatine Township provide at-need children with new backpacks and school supplies for children attending K-12th grade in D15 and D211 school districts. This year the Township will provide pre-registered children with custom packed backpacks at their appointment during the two-day distribution.
Donations are being accepted through July 19, 2023 at Palatine Township Center during normal business hours, Mondays through Fridays from 8:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.
The Township has an online wish list with various retailers for your convenience. Please visit our wish list by going to www.PalatineTownship-il.gov under "Outreach." We accept monetary donations, which allows us to purchase items at a reduced rate. You may mail any donations to 721 S. Quentin Road, Suite 101, Palatine, IL 60067. Please write "Back to School" in the memo part of the check.
"Our Back to School program is successful because of the support and generosity of our Township businesses and residents. Getting the children the supplies they need allows them to have a successful start to their school year," said Supervisor Andy-John G. Kalkounos.
