Tulsa City Council, Firefighters Team Up For School Supplies Drive

The city council has teamed up with local firefighters to collect school supplies for students of Tulsa Public Schools.

On average, families spend about $600 each year on school supplies.

This drive, which kicks off next Wednesday, can help offset some of those costs.

New supplies and gently-used backpacks can be dropped off at any of the 30 City of Tulsa fire stations August 1 through August 10.

Tulsa Public Schools will be responsible for distributing supplies to students.
