SORT.
Our volunteer-powered sorting events transform generous donations into organized, ready-to-deliver supplies that help local school districts efficiently get them into the hands of students who need them most.
Throughout August, we invite you to join us at the Stephen J. Ross Volunteer Engagement Hub to sort thousands of donated school supplies by item and prepare them to distribution.
Whether you join us for a community-wide sorting event or make a donation to attend Cocktail Hour for a Cause, every hour spent sorting helps ensure local students start the school year prepared to learn.
