Supplies can be dropped off at UCAN or Honeycomb Project
CHICAGO (WLS) -- It's almost back to school time, and a local supply drive is hoping you might think beyond the markers, crayons and pencils.
Volunteers with the Honeycomb Project are collecting dorm room essentials and personal care items.
They'll go to college-bound students from Chicago's West Side.

It's the Summer Swarm Supply Drive.
Donations are being accepted through this Friday at two locations, the Honeycomb Project at 1625 N. Kingsbury St. or UCAN, on 3605 W. Fillmore St.
