2026 Back to School Supply Drive

Help Us Send DC Students Back to School — Ready to Succeed!
A new school year brings new possibilities, and the WDCAC Community Mobilization Committee is helping to ensure that DC students have the tools they need to embrace them.
WDCAC is proud to launch our 2026 Back to School Supply Drive in support of students at Perry Street Prep Public Charter School.
This effort is about more than pencils, paper, and notebooks. It is about removing barriers to learning and helping students enter into their classrooms prepared, confident, and ready to thrive.
Together, we can provide students at Perry Street Prep with the supplies they need to learn, grow, and thrive — while reminding them that their community sees them, believes in them, and is invested in their future.
When we invest in our students, we invest in the future of our community.
