Back To School Event – Fulfill Agency Orders

Our 2023 Back to School Event will follow the same format as 2022.  That is, instead of setting up and staffing a store for children to shop, we will instead fill backpacks based on requests from local agencies.  We have found that this format allows us to support a greater number of families in need.  We anticipate serving the back to school needs for 400 children this year!

This event is our most labor-intensive and we depend on volunteers (ages 16 and up) to transport, unpack and organize items from storage and fulfill orders that we receive from participating agencies. Approximately 125 volunteers will be essential to the success of this project.  To accommodate our non-working and working members, there are some evening shifts available.

We appreciate your continued commitment to supporting families in need. Please check your calendar and sign up for one (or more) slots that fit your schedule.  Click to sign up
