Quota’s Back-to-School Zone Project

Quota's Back-to-School Zone Project is patterned after the Quota International of Raleigh's school zone project. This simple, short-term project involves collecting school supplies for needy children and distributing them at the beginning of the school year.

Quotarians partner with their local school supply store to facilitate this project. A "back-to-school zone" is set up in front of the store for a period of time before school starts. The zone includes a large box for placing donated items. Shoppers are encouraged to buy extra supplies while they are shopping and place the supplies in the "back-to-school zone" boxes.
