CIS Summer Programming begins July School Supply Drive - The students of Communities In Schools face a tremendous number of obstacles to completing their education. One of the simplest obstacles to surmount is a shortage of school supplies. CIS distributes backpacks and school supplies at all 55 schools where they are located, to thousands of needy students, and will be collecting school supplies for kids from Pre-K all the way through 12th grade. Community members who wish to donate supplies or funds to this effort can visit the Kits for Kids website at http://store.kitsforkidz.org/section.php?xSec=51 or contact Alissa Magrum at amagrum@cisaustin.org.
