The Darien Human Services Department can still use back-to-school donations from anyone who can drop off the list of items below at the town Human Services Department on the first floor in Town Hall.
Back-to-school supplies needed by the town Department of Human Services to give out to needy kids in Darien
Although the announcement lists Aug. 28 as the last day for donations, if you’re running late, you can still drop off something next week — it can be saved for next year’s give-outs to needy kids in town, said Alexandra “Ali” Ramsteck, a case manager at the department.
What’s particularly needed, Ramsteck said, are spiral notebooks, red pens, 1.5- or 2-inch three-ring binders and folders.
“These are always things that pretty much every kid needs,” Ramsteck said.
