I don't know why everyone thinks these drives are something new here in the villages. They have been having them every year just before school starts and usually announce them prior to the Florida "tax free" school shopping holiday.

Well, apparently now there is a better awareness of them. Go with the flow!

You were in the know, but I am new here and just found out. If you had let us all know sooner, that would have been a good way to use your inside info. Anyhow, we all know now, but you knew all along.

Doesn't matter who knew or when.

Helping out is a very good thing. Kindness begets kindness and will circle around for awhile and plop itself back on your doorstep.

I see the hospital volunteers in other places doing good things.

And many people who post on here are working in soup kitchens and helping to build homes for habitat for humanity and knitting sweaters for little ones and making quilts and delivering meals to seniors.

And then there are the silent helpers who just send a little financial aid directly to someone who needs it.

I like being in this community.

donate at any rec center for distribution to the county in which donated (I think).
donate $$ to the address of the individual school or county school board.
donate stuff to Wildwood City hall for Wildwood schools only

bump for kids

[Schaumburger]

Bump for the kids needing school supplies. One of my favorite things to do when I was a kid (that was in another century LOL) was buy my school supplies every August.
