Happy Weekend, Neighbors!

With Back-to-School quickly approaching, The Columbia Free Store wants to make sure every student has what they need to start the school year 👏

What does that require? SCHOOL SUPPLIES!

We need:
Backpacks
Folders/Journals/Binders
Pencils/Pens/Erasers
Lunchboxes

The hope is to load up each backpack/bookbag with one of each of the supplies.
If we can come together and pull this off, the goal will be to give the stocked backpacks to a kid who may need it!

Thank you, Columbia! YOU'VE kept The Free Store running for officially 8 months!

WE can do amazing things when we put others first and work together 👏💪🫶🙌❤️
