Supply Drives & Campaigns

Run a drive your whole church can rally behind.

School supplies, coats, Christmas gifts — import your student list, print QR tags, and let members claim, shop, and return. No spreadsheets, no lost paper angels, and you watch it fill up in real time.

Without Ministry Planner

Paper tags on a bulletin board — and a prayer nobody loses one
A who-took-which-tag spreadsheet that’s stale by Sunday lunch
Texts all week asking "what do I buy for a 3rd grader?"
No idea how many bags came back until the deadline
One coordinator carrying the whole drive in their head

SET UP THE DRIVE

From student list to live drive in minutes.

PRINT QR TAGS

Print tag sheets on labels you already buy.

One click generates printable tags — each with a QR code that opens that student’s exact supply list. Pick an Avery preset or set a custom grid, filter by school or grade, and print.

Every tag’s QR opens that student’s own claim page
Backpack-needed students flagged right on the tag banner
Your church’s name and your own call-to-action on every tag
Avery presets or a custom grid — filter by school, grade or status first

Tags — Back-to-School Supply Drive
A printed sheet of church supply drive tags on Avery 5168 labels, four to a page: each tag has a red banner reading backpack plus supplies or supplies, a large tag number, the student's school and grade, a QR code, the call-to-action "Scan for this student's supply list", and the church's name
SHARE ONE LINK

Your whole church shops from one link.

The public drive page carries your church’s name, logo, and colors. Members browse open tags, filter by school or grade, and see exactly what’s still needed — claimed tags gray out automatically.

CLAIM & SHOP

A shopping list that lives on their phone.

Scanning a tag opens the student’s grade-specific list. Members claim it with just a name and phone number, then check items off as they shop. Students who need a backpack are flagged right at the top.

SCAN RETURNS

Return day is just a scan station.

Give volunteers a PIN-protected scan link — no Ministry Planner account needed. They scan each returning bag’s tag (or type the number), see who claimed it, and mark it returned or delivered on the spot.
