MADISON — The deadline is near for the Virtuous Realty Group Back to School Supply Drive. The campaign, which ends Aug. 1, aims to collect enough school supplies to fill 100 book bags for K-12 school children in Madison.

Donations can be dropped off at Virtuous Realty Group, 8006 Old Madison Pike, Suite 16 in Madison.

Needed items include pencils, markers and crayons; pens and highlighters; glue sticks; graphic paper; notebooks; and toiletries for boys and girls.

The monthlong drive will culminate Aug. 6 in a Back to School Bash on the back lawn of Miller Plaza at Beacon Hill on Old Madison Pike.

The Back to School Bash is from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will feature a school supply giveaway, games, food trucks, music, face painting, and a moon-bounce.
