Tools4School
The Issaquah Schools Foundation provides new backpacks filled with school supplies for Issaquah School District K-12 students who need financial support. We work with the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank to support this basic need for students in the district. During our 2022 Tools4School campaign, we distributed approximately 850 backpacks filled with core school supplies to each school in the Issaquah School District so they can be given to any student who needs this resource.

“As a single mother with limited financial funds, I am so appreciative of this program. I have been struggling to pay normal bills and rent since being out of work, and this back to school supplies program ensured that my son was prepared for this upcoming school year.”
Issaquah School District Parent
“It was so nice to know he had all of his basic needs for his first day at school…I can't afford new clothes, or extra money on his lunch card…but he can stand tall and fit in with his new back pack and pristine school supplies! Thank you so much! He felt very loved”
Issaquah School District Parent
“It is very helpful, since every year we have to figure out how to get clothing and shoes for school. Tools4school has taken a burden off us. Thank you for this program.”

In need of a backpack and supplies? Backpacks and supplies can be received at your student’s school. To make access easier for families, ALL backpacks and supplies will be available at the individual school buildings in the Issaquah School District. Please plan to pick up your backpack and supplies from your student’s school after August 15th. There will not be a distribution event this year. all backpacks and supplies will be sent directly to the school buildings.
If there are students in need enrolling in your school mid-year or who may have missed the before-school distribution, there are still supply kits and backpacks available.
