We think that every child should be able to start a new school year with the basic school supplies and everyday essentials they need to be ready to learn and to fit in.  

To be ready for the fall, we need your help this summer.

Here’s how you can help:

• Sponsor a child's backpack – $10 provides one child with a new backpack full of new school supplies. 
• Drop off new school supplies at Citizens Bank branches across Massachusetts, now through Aug 10.
• Hold a Drive – Hold a drive for school supplies (notebooks, rulers, scissors, dictionaries, calculators) at your company or in your neighborhood.

Check our site regularly to find locations of Ready for School drop-off sites across the state.
