The 3rd annual Back To School Fair will be Saturday August 18 from 2-4p at the Prince of Peace Church.  This program is the cooperative effort of The Loveland Initiative and the Loveland Inter-Faith Effort (L.I.F.E.).  The goal of the program is to relieve the financial burden of back-to-school time on families.  In 2011, the event provided grade specific school supplies, backpacks, sweatshirts, dental supplies, shoes, and ahircuts to 234 students (Pre-K to Grade 12) in the Loveland school district.  Also families can visit booths from community partners such as the Library, the Loveland School District and the Ohio Dept of Education.

Registration will be at the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry in July during normal pantry hours  for qualifying families who meet income and residency guideline.  Pantry hours are Wed 10am - 1pm, Thurs 4-7pm and Sat 10am - 1pm (please arrive 30 minutes before closing.  Pantry not open on July 4th)
Donations of school supplies, dental hygiene items, and deodorant would be greatly appreciated!
Call the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry at 583-8222 for more information on registration, donating or volunteering.
