BACK-TO-SCHOOL
A new school year should be full of excitement but for many families, the cost of supplies can be a heavy burden. Our Backpack Drive ensures students start the year with confidence, dignity, and hope.
This year, we’re doing more than handing out backpacks—we’re building relationships. We’ve partnered with four grassroots organizations across the GTA and Hamilton, each deeply connected to the communities they serve:
- Parents Engaged in Education
- All Stars Community Outreach
- Toronto City Mission
- HAM - TBD
We’re also hosting a community BBQ to connect with families and send them into the school year feeling supported.
How You Can Be a Part of the Drive:
Purchase a kit: When you purchase a kit, for whatever grade, you are gifting hope and the resources children need to excel.
Serve: Join us in Hamilton and Toronto to pack every purchased bag with school supplies and get them ready! This is a child-friendly event, so bring the little ones along.
HAMILTON SERVE DATE: Saturday, August 9, TBD, 9 a.m. - 1 p.m.
TORONTO SERVE DATE: Saturday, August 9, 12 Pauline Ave, 9 a.m.–1 p.m.
MIDTOWN SERVE DATE: Saturday, August 9, TBD, 9 a.m. - 1 p.m.
