College Place Middle School is one of 13 Pacific Northwest middle and high schools that will benefit from Seattle-based Pemco Mutual Insurance’s school supply drive benefiting homeless and underserved students.
The goal of the annual “Supply Surge” school supply drive, running now through Aug. 6, is to help close the opportunity gap for students in need by making sure they start the school year with the necessary supplies.
Supply Surge will bring together 37 businesses in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood, as well as donors from across the state, to provide students with essential school supplies – from paper and pencils to backpacks and calculators– as schools return to in-person learning this fall.
