Bay City, Michigan - Do-Care Family Enrichment Center, a program of Do-All, Inc., is coordinating the Community E.T.C. (Educational Treasure Chest) program for the 7 th consecutive year.
School supplies are being distributed August 21-24, 2012 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3 to 6 p.m. at the former Hampton Theatre. The application process for the program began in May with applications distributed in the schools and available through human service organizations in the community throughout the summer.
Over 1,000 children have requested school supplies through the program. Each child receives a new backpack filled with grade-appropriate school supplies. Last year's drive provided 1,048 children with supplies. "To be successful in school, children need the proper tools," according to Kristal Corrion, Do-Care Manager.
"This is truly a community effort, different churches, businesses, service organizations and individuals all work together to collect the supplies for the kids, and we have one single distribution point. This really is an investment in the future of our community, an investment into the education of our youth," stated Corrion. In addition, this program is available year-round as supplies are available.
Donations may be brought to the Do-Care Family Enrichment Center, 711 Ninth St., Bay City. Financial donations for the purchase of supplies may be made to DoAll, Inc., 1400 S. Lincoln, Bay City, MI 48708.
If you have questions about this program or would like more information, please contact Kristal Corrion at 989- 894-0764.
