On August 18th, 107 youth and young adults came to Back to School Bash parties held at each of The Coffee Oasis Drop-In Centers in Kitsap County. They enjoyed food, games, and picked out school supplies to use for the upcoming school year!

Many of the youth were blown away by the generosity of the community and were encouraged to continue their education knowing that there were so many people in our community rooting for them. Some of the youth expressed their enthusiasm and gratitude saying…

“Wow, I didn’t expect to get all this! This is awesome!”

“Thank you so much. These are the nicest shoes we have ever had.”

“Being able to get school supplies helps me to have the things I need to complete school. People providing school supplies for me helps me to realize that there are still good people that support education. I am very Thankful.”

“I cannot even tell you how amazing this is.”
