Kids need help with school supplies
Vista del Camino, Scottsdale’s social service center, is running short of donations for this year’s Back-to-School Drive. Donations of every kind are needed for kids like Alejandra Reyes (pictured), by Friday, July 30, so they can be distributed to school kids in need prior to the beginning of the fall session.
Vista del Camino is hoping to outfit at least 500 students – but may cap the program at 400 if donations continue to lag.
Monetary donations are also accepted through Concerned Citizens for Community Health (CCCH). More information can be found at
