I saw at least one commenter asking about school supply drives in my story that ran Sunday. People wishing to donate supplies can contact their local school districts. I also believe residents can also send their donations through the mail by placing the school supplies in a bag near their mailbox.
In addition, people can donate money for schools to purchase needed supplies. They can make them out of the First Day Project and send them to the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend, 852 Middle Rd., Ste. 100, Bettendorf, IA 52722.
