Pack 'em Back to School

Greenbush is partnering with KOAM TV and KKOW radio to assist in the distribution of school supplies to school districts affected by this summer's floods.

The program “Pack ‘em Back to School” entails collection points at Wal Mart stores in southeast Kansas, southwest Missouri, and northeast Oklahoma for fundamental school supplies. Consumers shopping at Wal Mart stores may purchase extra school supplies and place them in a collection bin for donation to students in schools affected by floods in June and July.

KOAM and KKOW will deliver donated supplies to Greenbush on August 20. Greenbush staff members will then sort the donated materials into bundles, one bundle for each of the ten participating schools.

Pack ‘em Back to School is another vehicle with which Greenbush can continue to perpetuate our mission of ensuring equal educational opportunities for everyone. For more information please shoot me an email by clicking on "View my complete profile" on the right hand side of this page.

Participating schools:
  • Coffeyville
  • Caney Valley
  • Cherryvale
  • Neodesha
  • Chanute
  • Erie
  • Chetopa-St. Paul
  • Afton, OK
  • Miami, OK
  • Quapaw, OK
