Backpacks for Kids
When the new school year starts in September, many children don’t have the school supplies that they need. Purchasing school supplies can be an added stress to a family’s resources. Many families are forced to choose between providing housing and necessities that their children need for school.
Our goal is to give children the basic tools they need to succeed in school. To accomplish this we need your help! Please click here for a “BackPacks for Kids” Toolkit!
By running a "Backpacks for Kids" community needs drive, you will help us reach out to at a minimum of 1,000 children and provide them with a new backpack filled with grade appropriate school supplies to begin the school year on a positive course.
Thank you for your interest in participating in the "Backpacks for Kids" community needs drive. If you have any questions, or need further assistance, please contact Karen Colon at 973-279-8900 ext. 206 or karenc@unitedwaypassaic.org.
