Drive-Through School Supply Donations

The fourth annual “Operation School Supplies” at Dosher Memorial Hospital is scheduled for Thursday, August 8th, between the hours of 9:00 am and 1:00 pm. Local residents are invited to drop off new school supplies at the hospital front entrance, which will be donated for the benefit of students served by Communities In Schools of Brunswick County. Participants will be able to “drive through and drop off” donations without having to leave their cars.

This event will be held in conjunction with the Communities In Schools annual Back to School Supply Drive which takes place each August, where collection boxes can be found at their thrift shops.  Dosher looks forward to hosting an alternative location for this event, with the convenience of a drive through arrangement.  The school supplies collected enable every student to be prepared for the school year by having the tools they need to succeed.

Needed supplies include the following:

• Headphones or ear buds
• Crayons
• Loose leaf paper, wide and college ruled
• Colored Pencils
• Glue Sticks
• Dry Erase Markers
• #2 Pencils (not mechanical) and erasers
• Pencil pouch for binder or supply box
• Two-inch 3 ring binders
• Composition books wide ruled
• Spiral notebooks and dividers for 2-inch binders
• Three-inch 3 ring binders
• Spiral notebooks and dividers for 3 -inch binders
• Blue or black ink pens
