34th Annual Surplus Drive

January 20, 2022 , Advantage LLC

What’s a great way to support a worthy cause while clearing your facility of unneeded paper and office supplies? Donate these items to the PIASC Foundation’s annual Surplus Drive! Instead of seeing things collect dust and take up space, you can enjoy knowing your donated paper and office supplies will be put to good use at the graphics programs at our area schools.

Over the past 30+ years, the Surplus Drive has grown into a three-day event at which an average of 75 pallets of materials are donated. Days one and two are devoted to accepting and organizing the donations. Day three is when the real fun takes place: Teachers from area schools “shop” for free supplies.

For over three decades it has been the generosity of PIASC members like you that has made the PIASC Foundation’s annual Surplus Drive a big success and supported programs. Let’s make 2022 our best year ever!

What: Tax-deductible donations for PIASC Foundation’s Surplus Drive

When: Donations accepted from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm on January 20th & 21st; donations given away January 22nd, 2022
