July 1, 2023 – August 1, 2023

Artboard-3.pngEach July, the FAIA Young Agents Council kicks off a school-supply drive to help give Florida students a smart start back to school.

We’ve partnered with four non-profit organizations across the state to make giving easy—and safe. Each has provided an Amazon Wishlist, with items ranging from scissors and crayons to backpacks and math supplies. And to keep your competitive drive in gear and encourage participation, we’ve divided Florida into four areas that correspond with the YAC Zones.

Each purchase is assigned a point value based on the money spent. Once you’ve finished shopping, please send a screen shot of your receipt, or forward your receipt, to your Zone’s SS4K coordinator. The individual and the zone with the most points wins bragging rights for the year, and FAIA will match up to $250 in donations to the winning area’s organization!

Team Green: Zones 1, 2

All donations benefit Gulf Coast Kid's House. As a children's advocacy center, they combine all of the professionals and resources needed for the intervention, investigation and prosecution of child abuse cases under one child-friendly facility.
