Back to School FDL School Supply Drive to support thousands of FDL County students

This summer, Holy Family Catholic Community is once again joining with organizations around Fond du Lac County to collect school supplies for 2,400 area children with the Back to School FDL program!

Beginning July 12, we are asking you to help us in this effort by donating school supplies and dropping them off in boxes marked for Back to School FDL at all of our Holy Family sites except Sacred Heart through July 27. You can also make a monetary donation by sending a check made payable to Back to School FDL to P.O. Box 1747, Fond du Lac, WI 54935-1747, or by donating online at backtoschoolfdl.org

If you are in need of school supplies, you can register for the program at backtoschoolfdl.org through August 6. Eligibility is baesd on free/reduced lunch status. To register, you will need your name, birth date, school, and the grade for the children you are registering. To get school supplies, you must be available to pick up supplies on August 16. 

If you would like to volunteer with Back to School FDL to sort school supplies, pack up backpacks, or distribute supplies, please visit backtoschoolfdl.org.
