We have a new and easy way to support the Backpack Drive this year! If you want to donate supplies instead of money, but don't live in the Kansas City area, head on over to our Amazon wish list! You'll find the complete list of school supplies for both elementary and high school students. Have fun shopping for colorful pencils and backpacks!
Our team consists of Brooklyn, her mom and dad, and the rest are volunteers and family friends. Team members help fill backpacks with school supplies, help advertise, and work hard to help so this project help everyone it can.
I've always loved shopping for school supplies every August, and I knew that not everyone had access to the resources I did. That's why I started Brooklyn's Backpack Drive. Now, we've been doing this for ten years and I hope to continue to grow this and help people for a long time.
Our mission is to help every kid who can't learn at school due to lack of supplies, and make sure all of them can be educated with the tools they need.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission, Every backpack full of supplies costs a minimum of $50US. Every donation helps us purchase supplies to donate as many backpacks as possible!
