The 12th Annual Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference School Supply Drive will seek donations of school supplies for 700+ Students in need during June and July, 2025.​

​

This effort is spearheaded by a youth-led School Supply Committee, with guidance from Adult Volunteers and Hands4Hope staff mentors.

IN NEED OF SUPPLIES?

​

Students attend the supply distribution event to receive supplies by referral only. If you are a parent/guardian with an El Dorado County student in need of supplies, please contact your child’s school to receive a referral from your school’s resource providers, such as the school counseling office. Caregivers who receive support from other community support agencies, such as CASA El Dorado, or Health and Human Services, can also request a referral from those agencies. Please email us at info@hands4hopeyouth.org if you need further assistance.
