School Supply Drive Kicks Off | WESTCHASE DISTRICT

Every year, area businesses collect school supply donations that are disbursed through West Houston Assistance Ministries to students in need.

By hosting donation boxes, Westchase District-area businesses can help the Westchase District Community Fund’s (WDCF) school supply drive, taking place during the month of July. Locations hosting a donation box for school supplies will help collect donations that the WDCF will distribute to West Houston Assistance Ministries to help families in need. The need for school supplies is always essential especially as retail prices have risen since last year.

Requested supplies include:

  • Backpacks (transparent or mesh)
  • Colored pencils
