Few experiences are as harrowing as having your child in the hospital.

“Having the right supplies can make all the difference for a child going back to school,” said BRAA executive director Clara Bennett. “Even donating things that we take for granted, like pens and pencils, can help a child start the year off on a positive note. The Spirit of Giving Network makes such a significant contribution to the community, and we’re honored to work with them to make this school year better for the children who need it most.”
