CazCares is collecting school supplies for our annual distribution, which begins on August 17. We provide school supplies and a new backpack to over 100 students each year, and the donated supplies make this program possible.

I promised I would be better in 2026 about regularly thanking all of those who give so generously to CazCares, and I am already slacking. With a number of recent donations of time and goods, now is a perfect opportunity to make start making good on that promise.
* Thank you to Burton Street Elementary School for collecting much needed items - especially personal care products!
* Thank you to the Cazenovia Post Office for collecting a large amount of canned goods for the pantry - and thank you to those who donated food!
* Thank you to Madison County Rural Health for partnering with CazCares on promotion of services to our clients!
* Thank you to the employees of the Cazenovia branch of KeyBank, who volunteered at CazCares sorting copious amounts of clothing donations for their "Neighbors Make a Difference Day"!
