Hello AMHH SupportersWe're Growing!  Over the last few months, we've welcomed new members to the program.  We couldn't be happier!  

Getting Kids Ready for Back To SchoolSummertime is when AMHH collects school supplies for all of our kids who will head back to school in August. This year we need to be ready a few weeks earlier.  We help our moms by providing their kids from Kindergarten to 12th grade by providing them with a brand new backpack filled with age-appropriate supplies. You can help too!
  • Make a cash donation to AMHH for the purchase of school supplies. All donations are needed and appreciated but $75 will cover a backpack and all supplies for one child. 
  • Contribute school supplies from the wish list below.
  • Host Your Own Backpack Drive at your workplace, church, or community organization. Email Kristen Schaufler to let us know about your drive and schedule a day/time for drop off. All supplies need to be in no later than Friday, July 16th.
Our Most Needed List:
Notebooks, Index Cards, Crayons, Markers
1 inch Binders, Colored Pencils, Flash Drives, Backpacks
Dry Erase markers, Construction Paper, Loose Leaf Paper – College, Loose Leaf Paper – Wide
Composition Notebooks, Tab Dividers, Sheet Protectors, Highlighters
Rulers, Pencil Pouch, Small Pencil Sharpener,  Graph Paper
Calculator, Hand Sanitizer, Spiral Notebooks, 2 Pocket Folders w/fasteners

Super Summer Volunteer Day - Saturday July 23rd
