Wish List

WISH LIST AND SUGGESTIONS FOR IN-KIND PARTICIPATION WITH CLASSROOM CLOSET OF BLADEN CO.

Board members of Classroom Closet of Bladen County strive to involve all of Bladen County in supporting our primary schools, its teachers, and students as we all work together toward school improvement and student success.  We hope that your organization or church chooses to support us financially; however, there is another contribution that is just as important – school supplies.

We ask that you join as an organization or church to use 2026 as a year to concentrate on collecting supplies that will be housed in the new Classroom Closet for distribution among primary school classrooms and their students and teachers.  Below is a list of items that members might collect.  Organizations may focus on  one particular item which to collect or conduct an overall generic collection of school supplies.  If you choose one particular item, please let us know which item you will be collecting in 2026 (Please call or text Patty at 336-260-5121).

Hoping to join with you in serving our teachers and students in Bladen County.
