School Days

We say it every year, but it’s hard to believe school will be back in session soon.

If you need a little help gathering school supplies, Northern Kentucky Harvest is here to help. The non-profit has more than 1,000 backpacks containing paper, pens and pencils, and other grade-appropriate school supplies to give out to K-12 students.

Register now! Sign up by July 31 to be eligible to receive supplies the weekend of Aug. 13 and 14.

Now in its 22nd year, Harvest has distributed about 16,000 backpacks, with more than half of recipients each year from Covington.

This event is presented annually by Northern Kentucky Harvest in collaboration with Be Concerned and the Brighton Center. Frisch’s, Harvest’s original partner in the event, will again participate by providing gift certificates for a free kid’s meal in each backpack.
