HSP needs new school supplies to help prepare needy children for school!
Each year HSP supports the DuPage Office of Regional Education's annual Back to School Fair for needy families and Kane County's Project Backpack. HSP also sends school supplies directly to area schools with a large number of needy children. Through these efforts, HSP annually helps equip over 3,000 needy children with supplies to help them succeed in school.
Items needed include: Backpacks, pens, crayons, rulers, trapper keepers, notebooks, safety scissors, markers, colored pencils, glue, glue sticks, calculators, loose leaf paper (wide-ruled and college-ruled)

Mission Statement
It is the mission of the Humanitarian Service Project to alleviate the pain and suffering that poverty brings to seniors and children in DuPage and Kane Counties, Illinois, without discrimination or exclusion for any reason.
Description
Through our three programs, HSP provides life changing support to impoverished seniors, children, and families throughout DuPage and Kane. These programs are:
Senior Citizen Project - Provides nutritious groceries on a monthly basis to the elderly. Each senior receives a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, frozen meats, non-perishables, bread, paper products, hygiene items and a small gift from their "Secret Pal" donor.
Children’s Project- Provides children with nutritional support at critical times of the year to combat hunger and food insecurity. Children ages 3 to 11 also receive a birthday box filled with gifts, books, schools supplies and party supplies.
Christmas Offering- Provides nutritious groceries and Christmas presents to 1900+ children and 135+ seniors living in poverty. Over 22 tons of food and 10,000+ gifts are distributed during December.
