Getting Ready for the school year with Vina’s Back to School

Enrollment is now open!

Even though the sun is shining and summer break is in full swing, the start of a new school year is just around the corner - and at Vina Moses Center, we’re getting ready to help local students start strong.

Vina’s Back to School supports students from Pre-K through 12th grade who live in or attend school in Benton County. Through this program, children receive the essentials they need to head into the classroom with confidence: clothing, shoes, basic school supplies, backpacks, and more — all at no cost to families.

Whether your child is starting kindergarten or entering their final year of high school, we’re here to help make the transition back to school a little easier.

Who Can Participate?
Children and teens entering Pre-K through 12th grade who live in or attend school in Benton County are eligible. Families must sign up in advance to participate.

How to Enroll
📞 Call us at 541-753-1420 to sign up. Enrollment is required.

Program Dates & Locations
We bring Back to School to three different locations to better serve our community:

• Corvallis: August 1–28

• Alsea: August 7

• Monroe: August 27

Why it Matters
Every child deserves to start the school year feeling prepared and supported - but the cost of supplies and clothes adds up fast, especially for families already facing financial stress. By providing these items at no cost, Vina’s Back to School lightens that load and gives local students the tools they need to succeed.

This program is made possible by generous donors, volunteers, and community partners.
