Help me give my students backpacks to ensure our students kick off the new school year on the right foot so they feel prepared and ready to succeed from the start.

My Project
The purpose of this project is to have backpacks that will be given away to students at our back to school event prior to the start of school. For a student who may not have the means to get the back to school supplies they need, the anxiety leading up to the first day may cause them to not attend school, therefore, hindering them academically as well as socially and emotionally.
By making sure students feel prepared to start school, it will set them up for success for the rest of the school year.
Please help our students receive the supplies they need to put them on equal playing field as their counterparts.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
