Making Back to School Less Stressful: Spinato's Back to School Drive

🎒Back to School with Spinato's Pizzeria

Can you believe it's already July? Time seems to fly by, doesn't it? With August just around the corner, many of us are gearing up for the back-to-school season. It's a time of transition, excitement, and, let's be honest, a little bit of stress too.

For kids, returning to school means reuniting with friends, moving up a grade, and getting back into a structured routine. It's a time filled with anticipation and eagerness, even if they won't admit it. But for parents, it can be a different story. Alongside the joy of seeing their children grow and learn, there's often the stress of financial burdens, especially when it comes to purchasing school supplies.

According to the National Retail Federation, the average family spends around $890 on back-to-school supplies. That's a hefty sum, especially for families already facing financial challenges. At Spinato's, we understand the importance of supporting our community, especially when it comes to ensuring that every child has the tools they need to succeed in school.

That's why we're thrilled to announce our partnership with A New Leaf, a remarkable organization dedicated to helping families in need with housing, employment, food, and school supplies. This July through August, we're hosting a back-to-school drive to support A New Leaf and the families they serve.

You may have noticed the coat racks and backpack displays in each of our locations. For just $25, you can purchase a backpack and all the essential supplies to fill it, providing a student in need with everything they need to start the school year off right.

By participating in our back-to-school drive, you're not only easing the financial burden for moms and dads, but you're also making a meaningful difference in the lives of children in our community.

So, let's come together and make this back-to-school season a little less stressful for everyone. Whether you're dining in or ordering takeout, every contribution counts. Let's show our community that when we come together, we can make a real impact.

Thank you for your support, and here's to a successful back-to-school drive! 🎒
