25,000 Filled Backpacks Ready for Delivery, Thanks to our Volunteers!

A HUGE thank you to the 38 incredible volunteer groups and 790 amazing individuals who helped us reach our goal of 25,000 backpacks! With a total of 1,095.69 hours contributed, your dedication and hard work are making a profound difference in our community.

Each one of these colorful bags represents a child who will pull out the notebooks, folders, pencils, crayons, glue sticks and more and go to work – learning, creating, and acquiring the basic building blocks of education all of us need to succeed. No matter who you are or what you do, this is how all of us got started. And these backpacks level the playing field.

Every child will get the message the community cares and wants them to succeed.
