Staples, Notebooks & Pencils! Oh my!
We know that the school year is finally over and the last thing you want to think about is returning in the fall. But there are more than 13 million kids across the U.S. who dread going back to school even more than you do because they can’t afford to buy basic school supplies. Each summer Staples runs its annual Staples for Students School Supply Drive. This year it's recruited the cast from our favorite ABC Family show Pretty Little Liars to help the cause!

Do you have friends who can’t afford school supplies? Are there struggling families in your community? Helping out has never been so easy, or fun! If you email five friends about the campaign you will even be entered into a contest to win super cool prize packs like school supplies signed by the stars of Pretty Little Liars and a trip for two to Los Angeles!
Drop Off Supplies
If you want to do even more to help Lucy, Shay, Troian and Ashley then you can collect school supplies and drop them off at your local Staples store from now until September 17. You can recruit friends, classmates and family members to help you, or even run your own school supply drive! Need some ideas for things to collect? Think of the supplies – both practical and fun – that you use every day at school. In addition to pens, pencils and binders, kids also need backpacks, lunch bags, pencil crayons, calculators, lined paper and much more. Get creative! Have any other ideas about how you can help out? Leave a comment and let us know how you will be joining the team!
