D&A Services, LLC, a collection agency headquartered in Des Plaines, IL, continued its support within the community, by its employees donating over 30 backpacks filled with much needed school supplies to the “Communities That Cares” program.
“Very Proud of our Team. We are supporting “Communities that Care” Back-To-School program. Providing underprivileged children with backpacks and school supplies. We want to thank you all for giving a child a fresh new start to the school year! #Teachers #team #Family #givingbacktothecommunity” – Greg Neely, Chief Operations Officer at D&A Services, LLC.
Back-to-School program benefiting underprivileged children in Chicagoland. This program partners with Communities That Care to collect backpacks filled with school supplies for low-income youth in our communities who are in need of the educational tools necessary for a proper education.
The program works by choosing a Back-to-School tag with a list of the school supplies needed for each age group. Participants purchase a new backpack, fill it with the school supplies listed on the tag, and attach the tag to the front of the backpack. It’s a great way to make a child feel like a million dollars, equipped with a brand new backpack and school supplies on that first day of school!
Back 2 School Illinois (formerly The Illinois Currency Exchange Charitable Foundation) was formed in 2010, by the Community Currency Exchange Association of Illinois (CCEA), which represents more than 350 Currency Exchanges in the state. The roots of the organization were planted a number of years earlier when the first free school supply distribution was launched.
While the Back 2 School program remains the main thrust of Back 2 School Illinois efforts, the organization also offers other programs that fit within the guidelines of our mission.
