Fill The Backpack

The first day of school should feel like a gift—not a burden.

But for too many families in our community, August isn't exciting—it's stressful. The cost of notebooks, pens, pencils, and uniforms is simply too high. Parents are often forced to choose between sending their children back to school with the supplies they need or putting food on the table.

We don't think they should have to choose.

Fill the Backpack is a fundraiser designed to do both. We're raising $10,000 to help 400 students return to school fully equipped with notebooks, pens, pencils, and uniforms—while also providing 150 grocery bags to vulnerable families.

Together, we can make sure children start the school year ready to learn and families have the support they need to thrive!
