We’re also talking about ‘Operation Troopers Have Your BACKpack,’ which is a program in which Delaware State Police Community Outreach Unit collects backpacks and school supplies for the youth of Delaware.
Donations can be taken to Headquarters in Dover or to any Troop statewide by anyone wishing to help. Each Troop will have a box in their lobby for supplies to be dropped off for the project. The donations will be collected until August 31, 2018 and the donations will be presented for the 2018-2019 school year, prior to school starting. A list of supplies needed for the students are listed below:
