1st Annual Backpack Drive
Equipping students. Empowering futures. Our first annual Backpack Drive puts supplies in the hands of neighborhood students before the school year begins — because a good year often starts with the smallest things: a sturdy bag, sharp pencils, a fresh notebook.

- How you can help
- Donate backpacks or school supplies, volunteer your time, or spread the word. Make a donation or sign up to volunteer below.
Donate
Give steadily.
Every gift becomes shelter referrals, tutoring sessions, transitional housing coordination, certifications, and the small, ordinary supplies that make a program feel like a home. Recurring donations are the steadiest kind of help — they let us plan the year ahead.

Show up. Stay a while.
Bucket assembly evenings, backpack drives, tutoring sessions, and an hour of presence with a neighbor who needs one. Tell us where you would like to begin.
