Temple Shalom Sisterhood’s Annual School Supplies Collection

Helping children get a good start to the school year is a goal of the Sisterhood of Temple Shalom in Aberdeen.  Sisterhood will be running their annual school supply collection for families in the community who are in need.

From August 5th through September 3rd a basket to receive donations will be placed in the Temple lobby at 5 Ayrmont Lane in Aberdeen.  Donated items must be new school supplies in their original packaging. The Temple’s summer hours are 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on Tuesday through Thursday and 9:00 am to 3:00 pm on Friday.

For those that prefer, monetary donations for children’s supplies and backpacks may be sent to Sisterhood of Temple Shalom, 5 Ayrmont Lane, Aberdeen, NJ 07747. Please indicate “School Supplies Drive" in the memo field
