Back to School Drive

Our annual Back to School Drive is in full swing! 

The mission for the CED Back to School Drive is to make it possible for moms and dads in the South Atlanta Neighborhood to send their children back to school properly
equipped with the supplies they need to learn and face the challenges of a new school year by providing affordable school supplies.

We would love for you to host a drive at your place of business or worship for us in the next few weeks or to bring donations to our store located in South Atlanta. Please contact Jeff Delp (jeff@fcsministries.org) 404-840-4730 for more information about hosting a drive. If you cannot host a drive or bring items to our store, but want to contribute, all monetary donations will be used to stock our store with school supplies during the first two weeks of August. Click here to donate to CED’s Back to School Drive.

• BACK PACKS (CLEAR OR COLORED)
• NOTEBOOKS (SPRIAL AND BOUND)
