MEXICO SCHOOL SUPPLIES DRIVE SET TO BEGIN

The UNM Alumni Association has partnered with APS for its 3rd annual APS/UNM School Supplies Drive. The drive will run Wednesday, April 22 through Friday, May 29.
The current school year is quickly coming to a close. However, with the current economic crisis, it is predicted there will be a much greater need next year for supplies. Last year, according to a needs assessment, as many as 10,000 students needed supplies. That number is expected to double next year.
"Ensuring that families have appropriate School Supplies for their students will lift the burden of this expense in these tough economic times," said APS Superintendent Winston Brooks.
At this time, the Alumni Association is asking for monetary donations because supplies can be purchased en masse through the APS warehouse at a significantly lower cost.
Donations can be made by visiting: UNM Alumni Association[http://www.unmalumni.com/] and clicking on the APS/UNM School Supply Drive box. Checks can also be mailed to the Alumni Association at 1 University of New Mexico, Hodgin Hall, MSC01 1160, Albuquerque, NM 87131.
The School Supplies Drive will culminate in a distribution event held at University Stadium on Saturday, July 25 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. UNM student athletes will be on hand to help distribute thousands of backpacks filled with School Supplies, as well as meet and greet the students and their families.
Every child has a right to a quality public education. The UNM Alumni Association is calling on the University community to show its support of APS kids and our future Lobos. Join us and make your donation today.
