Thank you for visiting the Greater Augusta Back to School Programs website. We are a volunteer non-profit group of citizens in the Greater Augusta, Maine area that annually provides school supplies for local children in need. In 2019, we distributed 450 book bags and in 2020, we changed things up a bit and had a drive through event at the Augusta Civic Center where we distributed over 600 book bags filled with age appropriate school supplies while following all COVID-19 CDC protocols. The need grows larger each year - won't you join us in helping our children get their best start in school each year?

We are still accepting donations of the following items:

Backpacks (18" or larger) Backpacks (smaller than 18") Washable markers Crayons (24-pack) Large pink erasers

Colored pencils Pencil boxes and cases/pencils 1 Subject Notebooks Blue/black/red pens 1" 3-ring binders
