The 2025 Back2School Drive

Gear Up For Greatness

From ABCs to MVPs, you can help local kids start the school year strong. Whether you donate, volunteer, or host a supply drive, every play will help students feel confident and ready to learn. Make your game plan with us today!

Your donation will continue to have a big impact. Please consider making an online financial donation by August 4, 2025. Donations received will help offset the costs incurred to purchase the supplies we were short on to fill the backpacks.

Donate

Please note, should contributions to our Back-to-School Drive exceed our budgeted need, gifts will be directed to where they are needed most.

Create Your Own Online Team Fundraising Page

Online Team Fundraising

You can track engagement, and employees can make online donations on your office’s own page, and even share the fundraising page to their networks for additional support. We pack the backpacks based off specific supply lists for each school grade and all supplies that we do not receive through our donation days is purchased out of pocket from our agency to provide fully packed backpacks. Financial contributions are greatly appreciated and enable us to ensure that each family’s requests are fulfilled.
