Have you snagged your ticket to next week’s Back to School Drive?

If not, there’s still time.  Anyone is welcome to come without a registration; however, you must be registered AND bring school supplies to donate in order to receive an amazing “Swag Bag” of goodies!

We are so excited about the vendors and local businesses that are partnering with us for this event.

Current Sponsors:

Menchie’s Cumming Marketplace – My family loves Menchie’s!  And if you haven’t tried it yet, I’m sure you will too.  Not only does Menchie’s serve great treats, but they also serve our community.  Did you know you can host a Fundraising event at Menchies & they’ll donate a percentage of sales to your fundraising cause?  What an easy and fun way to raise money.  They also offer a party room for your private events – baby showers, birthday parties, and other get togethers.  During our event, Menchie’s is providing all Cumming Local guests with 20% off the price of your fro-yo!  Plus you’ll find an extra savings for later use inside your swag bag!

Fairy Tales Hair Care for Children – This is a topic that no one really wants to talk about, but the truth is it’s there.  Fairy Tales Hair Care are the creators and leaders in lice removal & prevention since 1999.   With the start of school just around the corner, it’s a great time to begin using haircare that actually prevents lice!  It’s recommended by doctors, nurses, and most of all parents – including myself!  With a rising Kindergartener for the first time, I’m tempted to buy a case and pass it around to everyone in my son’s class!  We’re really excited that Fairy Tales will be providing trial sizes of their popular product for this event!

KiddoTags – Need to do some labeling before school starts?  KiddoTags offers custom name labels that stick to your Kiddo’s toys, bottles, cups, pacifiers and more – even clothing!  With over 50 character icons, 10 different colors, 18 different fonts and 8 shapes and styles/types to choose from, you’re sure to find the perfect label for everyone in your house.  KiddoTags are printed in the USA and operated by a stay-at-home mom … who happens to live in Cumming, GA!  We’re so excited that KiddoTags will be supplying gifts in the “swag bags” for this event!

Mia’s Pizza & Eats – Using fresh and local ingredients, Mia’s Pizza & Eats is always cooking up something good for your family!  The first week of school can be hard and long on everybody.  But what better way to celebrate that week being over than treating the kids (and Moms too) to some delicious, freshly made pizza & eats!  Our friends at Mia’s are stuffing your bags with some certificates to do just that!

Sweet & Sassy – Located in the Avenue Forsyth, Sweet & Sassy is the cutting-edge children’s salon that every little girl and young lady want to go to!  Not only do they cut and style, but they offer a trend-setting retail store and are a great place for the perfect birthday celebration!  Be sure to check for your Sweet & Sassy “Bucks” to be included in each swag bag for this event.  Book your back-to-school haircut with Sweet & Sassy and you’ll save some “real” bucks!

Ava Anderson Non-Toxic – Did you know that there are toxins and unsafe chemicals in the cosmetics and skin care products that we use every day?  Ava Anderson Non-Toxic can infom you of these dangers and at the same time offer you a safe solution. They carry a full line of products and we’re very excited that each bag will contain a great, non-toxic product perfect for sending the kids off to school!  Stop the germs & stop the toxins!

Studio Lotus – Moms, this one’s just for you!  Now open at the Avenue Forsyth, Studio Lotus offers Pilates, Kettlebells and Redcord, along with group mat classes too.  Once the kids get back in school, take advantage of the great offer they’re stuffing our bags with and take some time for yourself!

Adventure Kids – Play, Learn & Party!  Adventure Kids is an indoor land of fun for all kids.  Located off Bethelview Road they offer an indoor playground complete with sand pit and inflatables.  And for Mom & Dad?  A lounge serving snacks, drinks and coffee along with free WiFi.  Give the kids a little break after their first week and let them enjoy a little adventure!
