Supply A Student
Supply A Student
Each year, we are honored to help organizations, community groups, and teams large and small come together to support underserved communities through backpack sponsorships.
It starts with a single backpack.
We offer pre-assembled backpacks filled with essential school supplies that are delivered to qualifying schools, or delivery of bulk supplies to groups wanting to sponsor backpacks. We encourage groups to add a personal touch by adding a handwritten uplifting note to each student recipient.
Each sponsored backpack costs $25 and includes:
- 3 folders, 2 notebooks, a package of pencils,
- a package of markers, a pair of scissors, 2 glue sticks,
- a package of Post-its, 2 pens, a package of crayons,
- a pencil pouch, a ruler, an eraser, and a pencil sharpener, all in a new basic backpack!
A backpack full of supplies represents a world of opportunity for one child, and an inspiring volunteer opportunity for your family or team.
