School Supplies
Fresh pencils. Fresh possibilities. It’s a no-brainer. Your gift provides the fundamental they need for the technical stuff (spelling tests and math problems!) and the important brain-break doodles in margins that help fuel big dreams. You get the “lead” out to them, and they’ll “sharpen” up and be ready!
Ah, the backpack. The childhood classic that carries so much more than books. From homework and artwork, to library reads and lunch bags, it also packs a pop of confidence that comes with being prepared for whatever the school day brings. It quite literally carries the load, and saves the student’s day!
The pen is mightier than the sword! These packs are for note-taking, essay-writing, list-making, and all the moments a pencil just won’t do. With these, there’s no pining for pens; they’re ready to let the ink do the talking!
Everything young learners need to start their school year off right. This kit and caboodle includes an age-appropriate backpack filled with all the things for writing, erasing, coloring, gluing, cutting, and participating. They’ll be ready for first-day smiles, new friendships, and lots of learning!
Every notebook starts with a blank page and endless possibilities. So simple, yet so powerful. Gifting these provides a student with the ultimate classroom essential. From notes and homework to creative writing and fleshing out bright ideas, each turn of the page brings fresh starts and big possibilities!
New teachers. New schedules. New adventures. New … everything. This kit’s got it all: an age-appropriate backpack chock-full of everything that’s needed to ease the journey of navigating middle school (and its intimidating hallways and schedules!) with confidence.
Help a student keep organized and their school days less chaotic. These binders magically turn loose papers into neat sections, and makes “Where did that worksheet go!?” a thing of the past. It’s the best kind of school day sorcery, says every teacher everywhere. (They thank you in advance!)
From early morning first-period classes to the best of afterschool activities, help students show up prepared. Includes an age-appropriate backpack filled with all the teen essentials (angst sold separately) for a school year that brings success, growth, and forward motion!
Graphs, equations, and formulas, oh my! This powerful calculator helps students tackle higher-level math with confidence. The priciest tool on school supply lists, it’s often the most difficult for caretakers and families to make happen. But your gift can “subtract” that problem and “add” all the ability for all the number crunching they need to do. If that doesn’t “equal” success, what does?
Why? Because learning is easier with a full belly. Every kit includes a lunchbox, thermos, and any needed essentials to make bringing meals and snacks to school each day as good, and as simple, as peanut butter and jelly. Let’s lunch!
Back-To-School Wear
Ready for roll call! This pack provides school-approved uniform clothing to help him walk into the classroom feeling comfortable, confident, on par with classmates, and ready to learn!
Fresh starts begin with feeling prepared. This pack includes school-approved uniform clothing so all she needs to focus on is learning, making friends, and enjoying the school year!
We all know children grow fast — so everyday clothes are always needed. This gift provides comfortable casual clothing for weekends, crucial family visits, playground adventures, and all the moments in between. And for those not required to wear a school uniform, this pack has their school days covered, too! Every child deserves clothing that fits well and feels good.

Every school day starts with a first step. From walking to school or into class, to running at recess or during gym, to simply keeping up with friends, a good pair of athletic shoes helps a child move comfortably through the day, and with confidence. Ready, Set, Go!
