❤️ Help Local Students Start the School Year Strong - Donate or Pick Up School Supplies
The back-to-school season can be exciting—but it can also be expensive. Fortunately, many organizations throughout Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, and Stafford County are collecting school supplies, backpacks, clothing, and monetary donations to help local students begin the school year with confidence.
Whether you're looking for a place to donate or searching for assistance, here's your local guide.
- Ongoing: The Stafford County Public Schools Empower Pack Project is now matching community members with students in need of school supplies for the upcoming school year. By signing up as an Empower Pack Pal, you'll receive a student-specific supply list tailored to their school, grade level, and interests. staffordschools.net/empowerpack
