Chapters! Help support the OCSEA School Supply Drive

Posted Aug. 7, 2023 by

Help kick off the school year with success! Support OCSEA's School Supply Drive!

So many children and classrooms start off the first day of school without the school supplies they need. Supplies equal success! By having the school supplies they need to start the year off right, our children will see greater success in school and throughout their educational journey!

OCSEA is proud to be hosting it’s School Supply Drive once again. Due to the pandemic, it's been three years since the last school supplies drive. OCSEA will be collecting school supplies through August 31, 2023. This has been a very successful drive in years past, and we're excited, with YOUR assistance, to help supply school children and classrooms all throughout Central Ohio. Chapters and subordinate bodies are urged to participate in this drive that will help working families most of all!

Please email Angela Harrington to arrange a drop off or if you or your chapter have further questions about the drive. Additionally, monetary donations are accepted.

Download the flyer to share with your chapter and to see the list of suggested school supplies.

Donations are being accepted at OCSEA Headquarters located at 390 Worthington Rd, Suite A & B, Westerville, Oh 43082.

Additionally, there will also be drop off boxes at this year's OCSEA Biennial Convention at the Convention Center, August 24-26. Donation boxes will be located at the Labor Education and Union Benefits Trust (UBT) booths open during registration throughout convention.
