The Gala is attended by representatives from major retailers and manufacturers that believe in our mission to provide free school supplies to students most in need. The event provides opportunities to network with others in the school supplies and office products industry, such as 3M, Dixon Ticonderoga, Fibre-Craft Materials, Pilot Pen Corporation, Office Depot, OfficeMax, Staples, and Target.

All proceeds from the Gala help us serve the 1.6 million children and 100,000 teachers annually who are provided with school supplies from the Kids In Need National Network of Resource Centers, 24 stores across the country where teachers can obtain free school supplies for their students in need. Last year, Kids In Need distributed more than $44.9 million worth of school supplies to the Centers in our network.
