Mile High United Way is working to help kids in our community start the school year off right!
The average back to school supply list can cost over $100 which isn’t feasible for many families in Metro Denver. Through Supplies for Success, Mile High United Way and our partner agencies make sure that the kids and families we serve are able to pick out everything they need for school. Be a part of this year’s Supplies for Success by holding a school supply drive.
Students need everything from backpacks to binders. Consider stuffing a brand new backpack with some of these goodies:

Please drop off items by August 8, 2018 at Mile High United Way Morgridge Center for Community Change at 711 Park Avenue West, Denver, Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
All donated supplies will be distributed to the students and families by the Mile High United Way Emerging Leaders Council on August 11.
