Items currently needed include:

  • Backpacks
  • Markers
  • Colored pencils
  • Folders with pockets
  • Calculators
  • Scissors
  • Rulers
  • Pencil sharpeners
  • Composition notebooks
  • Spiral notebooks
  • Highlighters

  • Packs of plain and lined paper

Donations may be dropped off at DAVRON from June 1, 2026July 20, 2026 . Drop-off hours are Monday through Friday, 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM.
