In partnership with the St. Johns County Education Foundation Inc., operating as Investing in Kids (INK!), The St. Augutine Amphitheatre is now an official drop-off site for the annual Tools 4 Schools countywide school supply drive throughout the month of August. 

In addition to being an official drop off site during August concert events, The St. Augustine Amphitheatre will host a Stuff the Bus collection drive during The St. Augustine Amphitheatre Farmers Market on Saturday, August 17, 2024, from 8:30am to 12:30pm. The community is invited to “stuff” new school supply donations onto a school bus that will be parked at the Amphitheatre. Volunteers will also be onsite to help collect and unload donated supplies. Donations will support over 52,000 public school students and teachers at schools across St. Johns County.

Each summer, INK! and community partners host the annual school supply drive to help teachers and students prepare for the school year. Tools 4 Schools is a community-based classroom supply initiative that provides classroom supplies to teachers and students throughout the academic year, reducing out-of-pocket expenses for educators and providing teachers and students with the tools needed for success in the classroom.
