The Back-to-School Fair serves over 600 low-income children from all over Jefferson County.

Our Back-to-School Trivia Night is the main fundraiser for the Fair.

The Fair provides free school supplies to pre-registered low-income children in Jefferson County School Districts. Each registered child receives a backpack, school supplies, a free pair of name-brand shoes, and many additional resources. Partner vendors also provide hearing and vision screenings, dental screenings, haircuts, healthy snacks, books, and valuable information and resources for low-income families. All services are provided at no cost to the children and families who attend.
