Backpack Program Update: Sunday, September 1st, 2024
What a season it’s been! 🎒❤
As of Friday, 2,664 students have received fully stocked backpacks, thanks to the incredible support from our community. That’s 195 more than last year! But we’re not done yet—more families often reach out in the coming weeks, so this number can still grow. The joy and relief on the faces of these students and their families are priceless, and it’s all because of people like you who stepped up to help.
This program couldn’t succeed without the dedication of our donors, volunteers, partners, and staff. Your generosity has empowered kids to start the school year with confidence and the tools they need to thrive. We can’t express enough how much this means to us and to the families we serve.
But the need is ongoing, and every bit of support helps us reach even more children. If you’re able to contribute, please visit Backpacks4Kids.ca and be part of making a lasting impact. Thank you for making a difference!
