Operation School Bell Rings in Supplies for Students
As the economy struggles to gain stability, you may need help supplying your child with basic essentials for school. If you or someone you know has a disability, being able to provide for your child may be even harder. Operation School Bell is available to help. Operation School Bell is provided by the Assistance League of Greater Cincinnati. The program provides clothing, school supplies, shoes and hygienic items to under-privileged children in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. The purpose of the program is to promote greater self-esteem, normal school attendance and an eagerness to learn. Operation School Bell is financially supported by grants and individual donors. The Charles H. Dater Foundation has given this program over $280,000 since 2000. In 2008 approximately 1500 Cincinnati Public School students received clothing and supplies from the program. For over the past decade school buses have picked up under-privileged students one or two days out of the year to benefit from the program.
