Worth Township Accepting School Supply Donations
Families who need help supplying children for school can pick up free supplies at the Worth Township office in Alsip.

Worth Township’s Youth Commission is sponsoring its annual “Apple Tree Program” for families experiencing financial difficulties. This program provides children with school supplies.
While this program is active all year long replacing supplies as needed, the greatest need for children is the beginning of each school year. Apple Tree is made possible by the generous donations of local residents, businesses, church groups, schools and civic groups.
