Support our students: The School Supply Drive
Join the Collier Elementary School PTA in ensuring every student has the tools they need to succeed. Your support makes a direct impact on our classrooms and empowers our teachers.
Help Us Fill Every Backpack at Collier!
Collier Elementary PTA is raising funds and collecting supplies to provide school supply kits for our students and help stock classrooms for the 2026–2027 school year. Our goal is to make sure every Collier student has the supplies they need to start the year confident, prepared, and ready to learn.
Families, businesses, and community members can sponsor a supply section, donate items, or contribute any amount toward the overall drive. Donations are needed by July 25 so we have time to purchase, organize, and prepare supplies before school begins.
How to Donate
You can donate in either of these ways:
Donate online:
Donate through our Zeffy campaign. Zeffy allows us to accept donations with 0 platform fees, and donors will receive a tax receipt automatically. Choose a category (or multiple) from the list to sponsor, or donate a flat amount to be used where needed!
Donate by check:
Make checks payable to Collier Elementary PTA.
Collier Elementary PTA is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Sponsor Recognition
We are so grateful for the businesses, families, and community members who help support our students. Sponsors will be recognized through:
Social media shout-outs
Recognition on the school marquee
Listing in our yearbook sponsor section
The opportunity to provide flyers, coupons, or promotional materials for our sponsor table at our Back-to-School event
Every donation, big or small, helps us fill student supply kits and support Collier classrooms for the year. Thank you for helping our Cougars start strong!
Why your contribution matters
The Collier Elementary School PTA organizes this School Supply Drive to ensure every student has the necessary supplies, regardless of their family's circumstances. This initiative also prevents our dedicated teachers from having to purchase essential items out of their own pockets, allowing them to focus on what they do best: teaching.
High-demand supplies and donation options
We are currently sending out a list of specific school supplies that are always in high demand and particularly helpful for our students and teachers. You can choose to donate money, which allows us to purchase exactly what is needed, or you can donate supplies directly. Both options provide critical support for our school community. If you prefer to purchase supplies yourself to donate to the school, please reach out to us directly at ptacollier@gmail.com to organize.

Distribution to classrooms
Once all the generous donations are collected, supplies will be thoughtfully organized and distributed directly to every classroom teacher. This ensures that resources are available to students as necessary throughout the entire school year, supporting their learning journey.
