Back-to-School Drive

Help children and teens head back to school with everything they need to start the year off right! We need one of each of the school supplies listed below (including backpacks) for the children and youth we are serving through each of these organizations.

  • 80 for Children's Rescue Fund / Icahn House that empowers individuals and families experiencing homelessness to help them become independent and self-sufficient for future generations to come.

  • 151 for HousingPlus, which provides women and children experiencing homelessness with permanent housing.

  • 70 for Fresh Youth Initiatives, empowering youth who have the fewest resources.

Please purchase new school supplies and leave in the bins in 5th Ave Narthex or 29th St. Lobby by Sunday, August 24. Monetary donations are also welcome, or checks made payable to Marble Collegiate Church. Write "Back to School Drive" in Memo. 

Please mark your calendars for our kick-off Volunteer Service Project as we Build-a-Backpack on Sunday, August 24, 2025, after Worship.
