Join us the last Friday in July from 10am-12pm for our yearly Back to School Bash. We give over 300 stuffed bookbags to children in our community to help get the school year started right. Students may also receive new socks or undies collected by our United Methodist churches on “Undies Sunday.” The more you help us to collect- the more we are able to serve.

How do I apply for assistance?

No need to sign up! Bookbags are provided on a First Come-First Serve basis. Please be prepared to provide Name, Birthday, and SS# for all members of the household. Income verification or current DHHR letter required.

Putnam County Back to School Bash information available upon request by calling Social Services.
