School Supply Train

Many kids living in poverty start school each fall without the supplies they need to begin a successful year of learning. In Smith County, more than 18,000 children live in households whose income is so low they are eligible for free lunch programs.

PATH teams up with each school in Smith County to provide school supplies to kids who need them.

Remember: $30 supplies one  child with a start in school! YES! I would like to make a financial donation for school supplies!

2009 SST Partners are: City of Tyler Fire Department Rose City Kiwanis Club Gap Broadcasting
