Bartells conducts school supply drive for World Vision

Shoreline Bartell Drugs in Gateway Plaza

Bartell Drugs welcomes donations of school supplies for its 11th annual “School Tools for Kids in Need,” August 10 through August 30 at Bartell’s 63 locations. The drive supports students in King, Pierce and Snohomish counties through World Vision’s Teacher Resource Center in Fife.

With the new school year approaching, donated school supplies help re-stock the Teacher Resource Center where teachers “shop” free of charge for school supplies to assist qualifying students.

According to Federal Way-based World Vision, a globally-known charitable organization, as many as 58,000 local students could begin the school year without the basic school supplies.

A “Basic Needs” list of suggested donation items can be found in Bartell’s “School Aisles.”

Bartell Drugs Shoreline store is located at 18420 Aurora Ave North in Gateway Plaza. Other nearby stores are in Westgate in Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace on 44th, and Lake City Way.
