back to school drive 2025
Imagine starting a new school year with a backpack that matches your favorite color, shoes that fit just right, and supplies picked out just for you.
That’s the difference our Back to School Drive makes for over 1,500 local children facing homelessness and poverty. YOU make it happen!
How to help:
- Sign-up today to sponsor a child or children. You'll receive the child's personalized wish list — including favorite colors, themes, and characters — to ensure every child receives clothing and supplies that reflect their unique personality.
- Organize a drive or donate general school supplies (click here for our Amazon Wishlist!). We're also in need of gift cards (Old Navy, Children's Place, Target).
- Make a tax-deductible donation to our back to school fund using the donation form below
To sign-up, please email getinvolved@homefrontnj.org or call 609-989-9417 x112.
