Running Start for School
The start of a new school year means buying school supplies, but for lower-income families it can be a time when money is tight.  Running Start for School depends on the support of the Olmsted County community to help provide school supplies needed by students.

Drop off your donations at the Library through August 6th.
Click
here to find lists of supplies needed (scroll down and click on "school supply list" in right-hand column) or pick up lists on display at the library.

Running Start for School provides school supplies to students in Olmsted County who qualify for free or reduced lunch and is a community initiative of United Way of Olmsted County. 
If your children qualify for free or reduced lunch for the upcoming school year and you wish to register them call (507) 287-1958 between June 2 and August 8 to register.
