Backpacks for Good

With Backpacks For Good, students head into the school year ready for a strong start!

Each backpack is filled with school-day essentials — pencils, pens, markers, notebooks, folders, erasers and pencil bags — so they can feel confident and prepared from Day One.

Backpacks come in two sizes for younger and older students, and each student gets to choose their favorite color—because a new school year should feel fun and personal! All backpacks and supplies are completely free, with one backpack available for each student present.

Families will also be able to explore other community resources at the event. Along with school supplies, farm-fresh vegetables and other food items will be available for families to take home.

If you have any questions please email BCF Program Director Susan Matheny or call the BCF offices at 269-983-3304.
