The Agency Hilton Head is Hosting a Back to School Supply Drive: Here's How You Can Help
At The Agency Hilton Head, we believe that being a great real estate company starts with being a great neighbor. That's why this summer we're proud to host our Back-to-School Supply Drive to support local Lowcountry kids heading into the new school year.
Whether you're a longtime community member, a new resident, or simply someone who wants to give back, this is your chance to make a real difference for a child in our area.
About the Drive
We're collecting school supplies now through August 1st to help local students start the school year fully equipped and ready to learn. Every donation, big or small, goes directly toward putting supplies in the hands of kids who need them most right here in the Hilton Head, Bluffton, and Beaufort areas.
Drop-off location: 5790 Guilford Place, Bluffton, SC 29910 Monday – Friday | 9AM – 5PM
Can't make it in person? No problem. Call us at (843) 706.2024, and we'll schedule a pick-up.
You can also shop directly from our curated Amazon Wish List and have supplies shipped straight to us; it couldn't be easier!

Access to proper school supplies directly impacts a child's ability to participate, learn, and feel confident in the classroom. By donating even a few items, you're helping to level the playing field and set a local student up for success.
The Lowcountry has always been a community that shows up for one another, and we're proud to be a part of that tradition.
