School Supplies Giveaway

This year’s School Supplies Giveaway is in partnership with Mission Memphis, Bellevue’s missions project right in our city!

Every child deserves to start the school year well—equipped and ready to learn. As part of Mission Memphis, Bellevue is partnering with Dexter K–8 and Kate Bond Elementary to host a School Supplies Giveaway on Saturday, July 25. Through this event, families from both schools will receive essential school supplies at no cost, which will help ease their financial burdens and create opportunities to share the love of Jesus with our neighbors.

Are you ready to make an impact? Your support will help provide supplies for students and enable our church to connect with families throughout our city. Here are a few ways you can love your neighbors well through this year’s giveaway:

Volunteer

Volunteers are needed to help organize supplies before the event and serve families on giveaway day. Opportunities include greeting guests, assisting with registration, distributing supplies, providing hospitality, and helping with cleanup.

Register to help set up for the event July 22–24.

Register to help on the day of the event, July 25.
