“Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom” (Luke 6:38).
The new school year is rapidly approaching, and once again many struggling families will need school supplies. With this in mind, Olive Tree Connections will once again be sponsoring a “Back To School Drive” for the Dupont Elementary School in Old Hickory, TN.
In attempting to reach our goal in helping these children, we ask that you make your family and friends aware and give them the chance to also contribute to this wonderful outreach.
Below you will find a list provided by the school of all supplies needed from Pre-K thru 4th grade. Please look through the list and pray about what you might be able to donate. The school has asked that we indicate on each bag of merchandise the grade that corresponds to the supplies. For those able to contribute an entire list, please put the items in the backpack and tag it with the appropriate grade for which it’s intended.
We will collect all supplies on Sunday July 31, 2022, at Olive Tree Connections. Our Event Coordinator, Tammy Brown, will deliver the supplies to the school.
If any of our own families at OTC need help with school supplies for your children, please privately contact Tammy Brown at 615-477-4228 or write: [email protected].
