Newport News Shipbuilding’s annual School Tools Drive, which runs from July 25 until Aug. 5, will help provide school supplies for thousands of students across the area as they prepare for next school year.

Shipbuilders are asked to donate new school supply items in support of the drive. See a list of most-needed items and frequently asked questions on MyNNS.

Weatherproof containers will be located inside the gates at turnstiles for convenient supply drop off. For department competitions and fundraisers, boxes will be available for pick up at Bldg. 103 and Shipyard Drive (southeast bay door) and NetCenter, beginning Wednesday, July 20.

Shipbuilders can donate online at YouGiveGoods.com/nns-schooltools-2022 from July 18 through Aug. 5. Online donations are not taxed and supplies are shipped directly to the selected agency. Purchases are tax deductible.

The drive will support agencies across Hampton Roads. For more information, email [email protected].
