Pack a Class is a new annual supply drive that is aimed at supporting all Bauer programs throughout Tippecanoe, Clinton, Carroll, White, Warren, Fountain, Hendricks, Owen, and Morgan Counties. The idea is to pack a classroom in each of the communities Bauer serves full of the most frequently consumed supplies to be utilized throughout 2024. As a primarily grant-funded agency, Bauer's compliance requirements include a significant level of in-kind giving. Pack a Class not only directly supports the day to day work of programming but it allows Bauer to tangibly demonstrate the support they receive from the local community.
How to Participate
Utilize Bauer's Amazon Wish List by clicking here. Items purchased through Amazon will be shipped directly to Bauer Community Center in Lafayette; however, items can be designated to a specific location or program. Amazon is not the most cost effective option for donors; however, it is quick and easy to purchase.
The most cost effective donation option would be to purchase items from their supply list and drop off items at a Bauer location. Bauer employees are available to pick up items.
Please review the supply list below. Brand name does not matter except in the case of Dawn Dish Soap and diapers. Soap and diapers of other brands can be accepted; however, they may be distributed to families instead of used internally.
