The first day of school is right around the corner and that means- school supplies! 

Since 2011, United Supermarkets has hosted a School Supply Drive to help raise funds for Lubbock area students to receive school supplies.  

To kick off the Drive Dr. McCord along with six other local school districts had the opportunity to shop for school supplies with a $150 United Supermarkets gift card. The supplies gathered will be donated to students.  

Dr. McCord believes that this fundraiser is impactful to the community because it not only benefits Frenship ISD students, but students across the South Plains.  

“We are always so grateful for the support The United Family shows the community through the school supply drive fundraiser. These donations will be a crucial piece in preparing our students for success in the year to come. Partnerships like this one make that success possible,” said Dr. McCord.  

The School Supply Drive will run from July 19 to August 1, 2023.  

Guests shopping at United Supermarkets are encouraged to donate at the register instead of purchasing physical school supplies for donation barrels. This process will allow guests to donate any amount at the register when purchasing groceries at any United Supermarkets, Market Street, or Amigo's location.
