Backpack United - Boone County A community-wide school supply drive will begin June 21 and run through July 15. Cash donations also are accepted. Lebanon St. Lebanon, IN 46052.

Backpack United - Boone County is a community-wide school supply drive that provides new backpacks and supplies to needy students in the Lebanon, Western Boone and Zionsville areas. The United Way of Central Indiana, Gander Mountain Distribution Center, Hachette Book Group, Lebanon Area Boys & Girls Club, Lebanon Kiwanis Club, Skjodt Barrett, The Caring Center and the Lebanon Wal-Mart are leading the Boone County BackPack Attack to collect new school supplies to distribute to area children in need. Over 45 community partners have agreed to help collect supplies, including corporations, service organizations, churches and others. The school supplies will be sorted, counted, packed and delivered to Lebanon Area Boys & Girls Club for distribution on Saturday, August 3 from 9 a.m.-12-noon. Additional supplies will be delivered, based on need, to the elementary, middle, and high schools in Boone County before school begins in August. The schools will then distribute the additional supplies to students who need them. The public can drop off school supplies at all Boone County libraries, the Lebanon Wal-Mart, the Boys & Girls Club – both Zionsville and Lebanon, The Arc of Greater Boone County, Witham Family YMCA, all Witham Hospital sites and Marsh & Akard's True Value in Zionsville. Boone County BackPack Attack donation boxes will also be located in other businesses and organizations throughout the county. Checks can be made out to United Way of Central Indiana with Boone BackPack Attack written in the memo line, and mailed to United Way of Central Indiana – 221 N. All donations of school supplies and funds will be used in Boone County for Boone County students. This program is in partnership with Indy BackPack Attack.
