Help Us Fill Our Classrooms For Back-to-School!
As we gear up for a brand new school year, INK! is calling on our St. Johns County community to help us make sure that every student and teacher starts the school year with the tools they need to succeed in the classroom.
The 2026–2027 School Supply Drive officially started June 1 and continues through September 1, 2026. Your support helps us stock INK!’s Tools 4 Schools store, a free resource where St. Johns County teachers can shop for classroom supplies to support their students.
Last year, INK! delivered over $143,000 in supplies to classrooms across the county. With your help, we can do even more this year!
Here’s how you can help:

Community Support Drives Success for Students and Teachers
The Tools 4 Schools program is made possible by annual donations from supporters like The Bailey Group, Florida Blue, and Staples as well as local businesses, churches, and community organizations that host collection drives including David Weekly Homes, Northrop Grumman, KeHE Distributors, the St. Johns County Tax Collector, St. Patrick’s Episcopal Church, The South Woods Community, Watersong Community, Villages of Seloy, and The Center for Spiritual Living.
For over 16 years, the Tools 4 Schools program has operated out of The Bailey Group Resource Depot, where donated supplies are stored and distributed to classrooms throughout the school year. Teachers can order supplies online each month and orders are filled and delivered by INK! staff and volunteers to their schools.
