Ready for Pick-Up!

Operation School Bell is continuing to provide clothing, school supplies, grooming kits and books to children in need. \u00a0 <\/span>Our<\/span> school and community partners provide us with the children\u2019s sizes and the orders are prepared for pick up. <\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Can you imagine never having a new pair of shoes? Only attending school half of the time as you must share your clothes with a sibling? Or an entire family sharing one toothbrush? This is the reality for many of the children we serve. Operation School Bell is the signature philanthropic program of Assistance League across the United States.\u00a0 The program provides new school uniforms and clothing to children identified as \u201cin need\u201d by their schools. Each child is individually fitted by chapter members and provided with: 4 shirts, 2 pants, 6 pair socks, 6 underwear, shoes, sweatshirt, jacket, toiletries, backpack, school supplies, and an age appropriate book.<\/p>\n

Currently we serve students in grades K-8 from the Arcadia, Alhambra, Garvey, Monrovia, Duarte, San Gabriel, Temple City and Rosemead school districts. \u00a0Operation School Bell has assisted more than 30,000 children in need with clothes and school supplies since 1970 and clothed over 1,000 this past year.<\/p>\n
