Summer’s almost here, and so is our biggest event of the year — Gear Up 4 School, happening August 16th! Heart of the City (a mission of Grace Chapel) is excited to once again rally the community to support local families in need — and this year, the need is bigger than ever.

We’ve seen a 50% increase in families needing help. Last year we served 400+ students with backpacks, school supplies, haircuts, breakfast, and fun — and this year we’re aiming for 450+ kids.

Together, we can make this back-to-school season one to remember for kids and families in Wilsonville.

FAMILIES IN NEED CAN PICK UP at Grace Chapel in Wilsonville, OR, 8/16/25, between 10am and 12pm.

Here’s how you can help:
💵 Donate (every bit counts!)
🎒 Sponsor backpacks or hygiene kits
🧦 Give new or gently used clothing & shoes
🎁 Provide raffle items, food, or fun activities
🤝 Partner in any way you, your business, or organization feels led
