Friends of Karen launches 2025 Back To School campaign

Non-profit supporting families with critically ill children seeks donations of school supplies and gift cards

Posted

NORTH SALEM, NY -- When you participate in Friends of Karen’s Back-to-School program, you give parents, consumed with caring for their critically ill child, peace of mind knowing their children will be ready for the new school year. You’ll relieve a financial and emotional hardship that can overwhelm a family at this difficult time and renew the excitement that a new backpack crammed full of crisp school supplies always brings.

This is what Friends of Karen children need:

New sturdy backpacks like JanSport, school supplies and gift cards of $25, $50, $100 to Target, Walmart, Amazon and Staples.

You can help us by inviting your friends, family and colleagues to start a Back-to-School supply drive or if you’d prefer not to shop, we’ll happily do the shopping for you.

To make your contribution TODAY, visit friendsofkaren.org/back-to-school/.

Send or deliver school supplies, checks and gift cards to:

Friends of Karen, 118 Titicus Road, North Salem, NY 10560

For more information about our Back to School program and volunteer opportunities to help pack and ship the supplies, call Allison Watson at 914-617-4054 or allisonwatson@friendsofkaren.org.
