Jamieson Community Center STARS (Students to Arrive Ready for School) program is accepting applications for Warren County students, grades K-8. Each student will receive a backpack filled with items from their teacher’s school supply list. Applications can be completed by calling (309) 734-4251 or in person at 1120A S. Main Street.
Money or in-kind donations are accepted. $25.00 sponsors a child. JCC purchases exactly what is needed, eliminating waste. For in-kind donations, we are accepting Elmer’s Washable Glue Sticks, Pink Pearl Erasers, or wide-ruled spiral notebooks. We anticipate on serving 200 students this year. Our goal is to give each child the right tools for success.
STARS is sponsored by Community National Bank along with area churches. Application deadline is July 25. In-kind donations will be accepted during the month of July. For more information on the STARS program or Jamieson Community Center visit jamiesoncommunitycenter.org.
