During your 2-hour shift, you’ll be helping with assembling supply kits like pencil pouches and binders, placing those supplies into backpacks, and packing the backpacks into labeled shipping boxes.
You might also be asked to assist with moving boxes, unloading pallets, or breaking down cardboard for recycling-every task counts!
Please note: our warehouse gets very warm this time of year, so be sure to dress accordingly, bring lots of water, and wear comfortable shoes.
We’re so grateful for your time and energy. Your support means the world to us-and to the students who will start the school year better prepared because of you.

Mission Statement
To empower all students to succeed by providing equal access to the tools and confidence needed to learn and thrive in school and in life
Description
Through the donation of high-quality backpacks, books and school supplies to Pre-K to College students in need, we aim to equip students with the foundational tools and confidence needed to learn and thrive in school. We are passionate that education is the number one path out of poverty and that graduation is essential to achieving financial freedom. We address the top reasons for school dropout (lack of confidence and lack of tools to do their work) and consistently check in with educators and social workers to ensure we are providing the items most needed. We manufacture our own backpacks and procure books and school supplies in bulk (or through in-kind donations) in order to optimize costs. By providing students with quality, long-lasting supplies, the need for teachers to fill in supply gaps is also eliminated.
