Help a Child Rise, Achieve & Succeed!

Back to school time can be a stressful time for many low-income families – especially those who can’t afford school supplies for their children.

You have the power to help a child succeed!
Donate a backpack and other needed supplies to our Back to School Drive and support the education of children grades K-12. You can also make a gift online below to provide funds for back-to-school supplies for the children we support.
