As our local teachers and school staff head back to school this fall with the very real fears surrounding COVID-19, it’s time for us as a community to step and support them. Jeffco Public Schools is working hard to find the supplies needed to maintain safe classrooms for students and teachers. As school starts, we don’t want our local teachers and staff to spend their own money to purchase these supplies. We are raising funds to provide back to school boxes for teachers and staff at the Jefferson Area schools.
These boxes will include:
- Hand sanitizer
- Clorox wipes
- Face masks
- Restaurant gift cards
- Fun school supplies
- Notes of encouragement
You can also donate physical items for these boxes. See below for drop off locations.
Funds will be used to encourage teachers and staff at Edgewater Elementary, Lumberg Elementary, Molholm Elementary and Jefferson Junior/Senior High School.
Thanks for supporting our local teachers and school staff!
Items to Donate
- Bottles of hand sanitizer
- Clorox wipes (bonus points if you can purchase a three pack
- Fun school supplies that teachers would use (like Flair pens)

You can start dropping off the above items on Friday, July 17. We’ll collect them through Friday, August 7.
