Gardner White Hosts Back To School Supply Drive

The fall school year is just around the corner. In order to make sure every student in Metro Detroit has all the supplies they need to start the school year off on the right foot we’ve partnered with Volunteers of America Michigan for Operation Backpack. This drive is focused on getting school supplies into the hands of students in need so they are prepared to have a successful school year.

Interested in supporting children in your communities? Drop off school supplies at any Gardner White location from August 26th through September 1st. Visit the Operation Backpack page for more information as well as full supply lists for each grade grouping.

With your generosity children will be able to learn, grow, and excel this school year.
