NNH's Back to School Distribution is an annual effort to get school supplies and essentials into the hands of students and families across northern Hamilton County, serving communities in Red Bank, Hixson, Soddy Daisy, and Sale Creek.

This year, we're changing how we show up. Instead of hosting one large central event, NNH will bring supplies directly to families by participating in existing school and neighborhood events throughout the summer. This community-based model lets us reach more families, remove transportation barriers, and respond to each school's specific needs, including stocking school Care Closets with hygiene products, snacks, and other essentials students rely on during the school day.

Distribution events will run from July through the start of the school year. Donated items should be dropped off at the NNH Main Agency (211 Minor Street) by July 17, 2026.
