Community Outreach Unit – Operation BACK-PACK project

 
The Delaware State Police Community Outreach Unit has established a program to assist elementary school aged children with the necessities for school. Troopers are asking for help with any donations to fill each child’s back-pack with school supplies.
 
Troopers assigned to the Community Outreach Unit have initiated this program and are working with organizations in their communities to collect and donate school supplies for children in need. Donations can be taken to each Troop statewide by anyone wishing to help.  Each Troop will have a box in their lobby for supplies to be dropped off for the project.  The donations will be collected from July 20 to August 10, 2015 and the donations will be presented for the 2015-2016 school year, prior to school starting. A list of supplies needed for the students are listed below:
 
Backpacks
No. 2 pencils

Washable Crayola crayons box of 24
Large pink erasers
Pencil cases
Colored pencils
Washable markers
