Four elementary school children of different ethnicities stand with backpacks to camera.

2025 School Supply Drive

Help send CASA kids back to school with the supplies they need to succeed.

This year, Jackson County CASA is partnering with Foster Adopt Connect to provide school supplies for all of the children we serve. There are two ways you can help:

Shop and Ship--Shop online and send your school supplies directly to Foster Adopt Connect,18600 E 37th Terrace S, Independence, MO 64057
Deliver school supplies Monday-Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. to the Foster Adopt Connect offices, 18600 E 37th Terrace S, Independence, MO 64057.

Foster Adopt Connect will host the School Supply giveaway for CASA kids on August 1st, so please deliver your supplies before that date.

Thank you for helping children in foster care go back to school with the supplies they need to succeed!
