Sending our local students back to school supplied
A special shout out and thanks to Post 44 members and our awesome auxiliary for their generous 2024 “back to school” donations. It’s in support of the city of Scottsdale’s annual Vista del Camino Center Back to School Program. This is in partnership with Scottsdale Community Partners who provide essential school supplies, backpacks, clothing, and shoes to income-eligible, Scottsdale-based students, kindergarten through 12th grade. Over 950 students were helped!
