Various Groups Hold Backpack Giveaways Nationwide

Various organizations across the United States have stepped up to alleviate the financial burden of back-to-school expenses by distributing free backpacks filled with school supplies. Endeavors, along with local Starbucks, hosted a drive for students in Uvalde, Texas, while Mr. Dad's Father's Club in Chicago is preparing for a large giveaway event. In Lansing, Michigan, Communities in Schools partnered with a local radio station for their 16th annual giveaway. BluSky Restoration provided backpacks at a back-to-school event in St. George, Utah, and WM donated backpacks to the Gifford Youth Achievement Center for the eighth consecutive year. These efforts highlight a community-driven approach to supporting families during the expensive back-to-school season.
