Abby’s Closet

Our wish is that each “Abby’s Closet” be a source of assistance to students and even encourage their desire to learn and further their education. Abby’s Closets provide so much more than pencils and paper. Each space offers hope and acceptance while greeting students with Abby’s giving spirit.

Abby Loved School

Abby LOVED to play school and pretend to be the teacher. She also loved shopping for new school supplies each year. With that, came the excitement, curiosity, and wonderment of learning. We believe Abby may have followed her dream to become a teacher.

Closets we've stocked since 2013

Fun & Needed
School Supplies

In this spirit, the Foundation partners with schools to create an “Abby’s Closet”—a welcoming space stocked with required grade-level supplies, along with a few fun and funky extras. We know many families struggle to provide even the basic essentials needed to start the school year or replenish supplies as the months go on. Our hope is that every “Abby’s Closet” serves as a reliable source of support for these students, helping them feel prepared, encouraged, and inspired to learn.

We have only one requirement: students who benefit from “Abby’s Closet” must never feel outcast, singled out, or needy. The purpose of every closet is simple—to help students feel confident, supported, and like they truly belong.
