# Simon Says Give: School Supply Drive!

# Simon Says Give: School Supply Drive!

 

At the beginning of July, CARDSource employees took part in [Simon Says Give](https://www.simonsaysgive.org/)’s July [High Five For Supplies](https://www.simonsaysgive.org/what-we-do/high-five-for-supplies) drive. The goal of this drive is to collect essential school supplies for children in need. CARDSource's community action team assigned point values to specific items: backpacks, calculators, pencils, scissors, and more. The rules are simple: collect the most points for your team by the end of the month to win!

After team #4 led for the first few weeks, team #2 pulled out an extensive, last-minute victory!

At the conclusion of the drive, we collected a total of:

**44 **backpacks

**26 **packs of loose leaf paper

**20 **sets of markers

**20 **sets of colored pencils

**45 **sets of crayons

**13 **sets of watercolor paints

**5 **standard calculators

**7 **scientific calculators

**32 **sets of glue sticks

**17** scissors

**2 **rulers

**44 **sets of 5+ pencils

**12** sets of pens

**3 **erasers

**13** pocket folders

**81 **spiral notebooks

**10 **highlighters

We couldn’t be prouder of enabling these children to succeed in school. It's always rewarding to band together for the sake of improving the community.

The July school supply drive may be over, but there are always ways to help children in need. Learn more about how you can help [here](https://www.simonsaysgive.org/how-you-can-help/sponsorship-opportunities).
