Back to School Collections for the Church Hill Christian Wellness Center and South Richmond Baptist Center
Drop Off in the Lower Commons
Sundays, July 19, July 26, & August 2, 2026, 9AM-1PM
July 20-24, and July 27-31, 2026, 8:30AM-4:30PM
This year Richmond Public Schools are continuing a clear backpack policy—due to this, the Board of Missions is providing the backpacks. We are asking that the church provide the schools supplies to fill the backpacks. Please fill a shopping bag with the full list of school supplies—each shopping bag should have all of the supplies needed to fill a backpack.
The deadline to drop off is Sunday, August 2, 2026. Please deliver supplies during any of the times listed above. Drop off donations in the Lower Commons, there will be designated/marked bins. Please note, the Lower Commons will be locked during the week—you will need to ring the bell/buzzer at the Lower Commons entrance, and someone from the church office or preschool office will grant access to the building.
If you have any questions, please contact Norma Hays.
