ALLOS collects school supplies and books for back-to-school

ALLOS launches Back-to-School Solidarity Campaign 2026 across 46 malls in 14 states, gathering school supplies and literary books for underprivileged kids.

Drive boosts education and reading

ALLOS runs the drive from January 8 to February 8. Collection points sit in mall corridors. For the first time, it includes non-textbook literary books. This expands reading promotion alongside basics like backpacks and notebooks.

Donors drop off good-condition items. Shoppers, staff, and tenants join in. Goods reach nearby institutions. Since 2020, ALLOS donated over 70,000 items. Last year, 18,000 helped 4,000 children.

Each donated item or book holds real power to change a child’s path. Education remains ALLOS’s core commitment.

Ana Paula Niemeyer, ALLOS Marketing Director, underscores the social impact. The drive kicks off 2026 actions. Education stays key through 2030.
