Summer has barely started, but it’s already time to think about the start of the school year. Just like last summer, we’re donating school supplies to 2 of our service communities – and you’re invited to participate.
How Our Back to School Supplies Drive Works
We are sending off backpacks loaded up with school supplies for students Pre-K to 8th grade in Arizona and South Dakota Native communities. If you’d like to donate, you can send school supplies to our headquarters by June 28 at:
Tribal Health
14614 N. Kierland Blvd., Suite 120
Scottsdale, AZ 85254
Here’s What We’re Looking For
- Crayons
- Pencils

- Colored pencils
- Notebooks
- Sketch pads
- Journaling notebooks
Supporting Academic Pathways for Native Students
We are big believers in education here at Tribal Health. You might have guessed that from our TEAMS program, which pays 100% of all tuition for employees’ degree programs, and our new STEM program, which brings free curriculum to our service area schools to help increase Native representation in healthcare, science, engineering, and technology.
But ensuring a good education is about more than paying the bill – it’s about setting children up for academic success by giving them the right supplies and resources so they can perform well in the classroom. Our Back to School Supplies Drive is one stepping stone that can bring a student closer to a bright future.
