Your $25 donation will ensure one child or teen receives a NEW backpack filled with school supplies. Pencils, notebooks, crayons, folders, binders, rulers and more. Donate $100 and support four students this school year!
2) Hold Your Own Donation Drive
Collect NEW backpacks and school supplies with your family, friends, co-workers or community group!
