Shelter House Launches Back-to-School Drive

Although the return to school will be atypical this year, a Reston-based nonprofit organization is seeking donations for its back-to-school drive.

Shelter House, which is located at 12310 Pinecrest Road, has created an Amazon-based wish list. All donations for the Shelter House should be directed to the Shelter House.

Items requested include headphones, face bandanas, gloves, printers, hand sanitizers, lunch boxes, tissue, rulers, binders, and pens.

Anyone who wishes to arrange more specific deliveries can contact [email protected]. Monetary donations are also accepted online.

Founded in 1981, Shelter House is a nonprofit organization that offers crisis intervention, housing, and supportive services to homeless families and victims of domestic violence in the community.
