The Brick Township Mayor’s Student Advisory Committee is continuing its annual school supply drive through the end of the month, collecting materials to help students in town whose families may not otherwise be able to afford such items.
The students of the committee will be collecting new items including backpacks, lunch bags, folders, pencils, pens, crayons, markers, erasers, glue sticks, scissors, pencil cases and sharpeners, highlighters, dry erase markers, construction paper, notebooks, 1-inch binders, ear buds, tissues, hand sanitizer and Clorox wipes.
All collected items will be distributed to children who need them for the upcoming school year. A collection bin will be available in the Municipal Building, 401 Chambers Bridge Road, through August 31 and is accessible from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.
