Back-to-School Success: School Year 2025–2026

School supply distribution begins Monday, August 18, 2025

PRISM is here to help students start the school year strong with our Back-to-School Success program. While this year’s supply distribution looks a little different than in the past, we remain just as committed to supporting families in our community.

To receive a backpack and school supplies, families must meet with a Case Manager during food shelf hours. Supplies will be distributed while they last, so we encourage families to arrive early during the distribution period.

Distribution Hours:

• Monday: 10 AM – 4 PM

• Tuesday: 10 AM – 4 PM

• Wednesday: 10 AM – 4 PM

• Thursday: 11 AM – 7 PM

To Qualify:

• Children must be entering grades K–12

• Children must live in your home and be verified with documents such as a birth certificate, school records, medical records, or a Social Security card

• Families must live in Golden Valley, New Hope, Robbinsdale, Crystal, or Plymouth and provide proof of residency (lease or current bill)

We know how important it is for every child to feel confident and ready on the first day of school. We’re proud to continue this tradition of support and invite eligible families to participate in this year’s program.

Backpacks and supplies will be distributed until supplies run out.
