The Cape Coral Police Department is once again partnering with the 3H Exchange. The 3H Exchange (High Schools Helping the Homeless) is a program committed to providing goods to students in need throughout the Lee County School District.

Starting today, July 19, and running through Monday, Aug. 2, the CCPD will have a donation bin in the lobby of the Cape Coral Police Department headquarters at 1100 Cultural Park Boulevard where people can drop off donations for the 3H Exchange. This donation drive is for school supplies as we head back into the school year starting Aug. 10.

These donations are all kept local and handed out through the help of social workers and counselors for the students in the Lee County School District. By donating in this bin, you are making a difference in the lives of Lee County children and helping better your own community.

The 3H Exchange is asking for donations of the following:

pencils, pens, crayons, markers, highlighters

folders, lined paper, notebooks, 3-ring binders

glue, pencil pouches, backpacks, etc.
