Back To School Supply Drive

Join Us For Our Back to School Supply Drive August 16, 2014

Please join us this year as we once again have a Back to School Supply Drive. We started this event a few years back when we noticed that kids in the neighborhood around the Empowerment Center were going back to school empty-handed. We soon learned that there was a great need to help our neighbors with school supplies, especially at the beginning of the school year. WHEN:  Saturday, August 16, 2014 10:00 AM to Noon While Supplies Last! WHAT:   Back to School Supply Drive Activities Include The Following: Free back-to-school supplies WHILE THEY LAST; Free Food; Free Haircuts for Kids; Bounce House; Basketball; Drawings for Door Prize; Tours of the Empowerment Center. WHERE: The Empowerment Center at 2200 Zang Blvd., Dallas, TX 75224   Take I-35 South to Illinois. (This is 2 exits PAST  the Zang exit.)   Take a right on Illinois (heading west).  First light is Zang.   Turn right on Zang. We are the second building on the right. HOW YOU CAN HELP: There Are Three Easy Ways To Help: Bring new, unopened school supplies of any kind and join in the fun at the Empowerment Center, 2200 South Zang Blvd., Dallas, Texas 75224, from 10:00 am to noon; Donate cash or check (payable to New Hope Foundation) at the Empowerment Center on August 16, 2014 from 10:00 am to noon; or Donate Online to New Hope Foundation through Pay Pal (list the school supply drive in the ‘special notes’ section of the donation form). We’ll send you a receipt and make sure your entire donation goes to the Back to School Supply Drive.
