Among the WCPF’s programs is its School Supply Drive, which tasks supporters with gathering essential school supplies for the WCPF so the organization can deliver them to schools and the families of children in Illinois who make individual requests. Those wishing to help the organization by arranging a drive must fill out an application form and send it to the WCPF, which will then provide the individual with a range of tools and items to help them plan and operate the drive.
Upon completion of a drive, WCPF representatives arrive to collect the donated items and take them to the WCPF warehouse, where it fills backpacks with supplies for later distribution. Further, the WCPF accepts monetary donations to the School Supply Drive program in the form of checks mailed to the foundation, or via credit card at www.payton34.com.
