A complete list of items and collection sites can be found here.
The collection will end on Aug. 6 when a Marysville School Bus will make the rounds and pick up all the donations. All donations will
be sorted by volunteers at the Central Ohio Youth Center and distributed to schools in the
Fairbanks, Jonathan Alder, Marysville, and North Union districts before the start of the school year.
Those in need of supplies should contact their child’s school to learn more.
“Preparation is a key to success,” Corinne Bix, UWUC Campaign Director said, “We want every student in Union County and Plain City to feel
prepared with the necessary supplies when they start back to school next month.”
Sponsors of this year’s Learn United event include Jerome Village, Memorial Health, Interim Healthcare, Honda of America, Liberty National Bank, Union Rural Electric, Parrott Implement and Midwest Express.
