Thinking Spring Cleaning?

Support our students by donating gently used clothing, shoes, and household items to the donation bins within the district. There are three donation bins currently located in Spring Grove Area School District. You can find them in the parking lots at the following schools:

New Salem Elementary: Proceeds go to the PTO to benefit NSE students.
Spring Grove Elementary: Proceeds go to the PTO to benefit SGE students.
Spring Grove Area Middle School: Proceeds benefit the district-wide Backpack Program and students in need within the district.

The donation bins are emptied weekly, but occasionally they become full before the scheduled pick-up day.

What To Do If The Donation Bin Is Full

If the donation bin is full, DO NOT leave your items outside of the bin. Due to outside elements potentially damaging or contaminating the items, they will be thrown out instead of being donated. If the bin is full, please kindly wait until the bin is emptied or consider dropping your items off at another bin located within the district.
CommunityAid accepts donations at local CommunityAid stores. When dropping off your items, please reference our Partner Number 20155, and the items will be credited to our account. The two closest locations to Spring Grove are Hanover and York. Please visit communityaid.org/shop for locations and donation hours.
