Back-to-School Buddies

 We hear from parents that they want their children to know how blessed they are, and they want them to learn to give to those less fortunate. Gateway’s Back-to-School Buddies Program can help do just that, and it is easy…

When you are shopping for back to school needs, as your child chooses an item from his/her list, allow him/her to choose a similar item for his/her Buddy. And when you are done shopping, just drop the items for that Buddy at any of the following Gateway locations:

Southside – 1401 20th Street South – 35205
Campus – 5201 Airport Highway - 35212
Shelby Co. – 333 Business Circle – Pelham – 35124

Your child will be ready for school and he/she will have made it possible for another child to begin the school year ready for success. How nice is that?

We need supplies for both boys and girls from Kindergarten to High School; and we’ll match your donation with a child of an appropriate age and with a verified need for assistance.

Please click here to complete the form that will allow us to acknowledge your gift and your child’s participation as a
Back-to-School Buddy.

Please call Jim Belk at 510-2762 with any questions you may have.

Thank you for your generosity to Gateway and the children we serve.
