Back to School Drive for Seton Center
Help us set local students up for success this academic year! From now through Sunday, July 26th, Saint Thomas More is collecting school supplies, uniforms, and monetary donations to support up to 250 K-12 children through the Seton Center.
Your generosity directly impacts families in our community, ensuring every child walks into their classroom prepared and confident.
How to Donate Supplies
Please bring your donations to the church and place them in the designated blue tubs located in the Narthex.
High-Priority School Supplies Needed:
Paper & Notebooks: Spiral notebooks, loose-leaf paper, pocket folders, composition notebooks (all wide or college ruled), graph paper, and 3×5 index cards.
Writing & Drawing: Colored pencils, 24-count crayons, highlighters, #2 pencils, black/blue/red pens, and pencil boxes or pouches.
Gear & Tools: Backpacks (all ages, boys & girls), rulers, glue, glue sticks, protractors, and scissors (pointed or blunt; for children through high school).
Clothing: Socks, underwear, t-shirts, and new or gently used school uniform clothes.
Note on Erasers: Please do NOT purchase large pink erasers. Thanks to early generosity, we have already received enough to meet our goal!
Don't Have Time to Shop? Donate Financially!
We make it easy to support the drive even if you can't make it to the store.

By Check: Please make checks payable to St. Thomas More and write "Back to School Drive" in the memo line or on the donation envelope. Drop it off in the collection basket or at the parish office.
Volunteer to Help Sort Supplies
We need hands to help organize and sort the collected supplies before they are delivered to the Seton Center. This is a wonderful, tangible way to serve!
