The Lee County Tax Collector\u2019s Office is hosting its third annual \u201cStock a Classroom\u201d supply drive in support of local educators.<\/p>\n
Now through Aug. 14, the community is invited to drop off school supplies at any of the Tax Collector\u2019s five service center locations. Donation boxes will be conveniently located inside each office to collect in-demand items like pencils, pens, crayons, arts and crafts supplies, puzzles, dry erase markers and glue sticks. To find a nearby location, visit\u00a0LeeTC.com\/Locations.<\/p>\n
The drive aligns with Florida\u2019s Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday, making it a great time to purchase.<\/p>\n
\u201cTeachers give so much to help their students succeed, and something as simple as classroom supplies can make a meaningful difference,\u201d said Noelle Branning, Lee County Tax Collector and executive board member of The Foundation for Lee County Public Schools. \u201c\u2018Stock a Classroom\u2019 gives our community an easy way to show local educators that we appreciate and support them.\u201d<\/p>\n
All donations will benefit the Education Resource Center at The Foundation for Lee County Public Schools, which provides teachers with free supplies to help students succeed in the classroom.<\/p>\n
For those unable to drop off items in person, donations can also be made via the foundation\u2019s\u00a0Amazon Wishlist\u00a0or\u00a0Walmart Wishlist, with items shipped directly to the Education Resource Center.<\/p>\n
