Just $53 Fills the Bag for one kid on the first day of school

The first day of school sets the whole year for a kid. And when a kid doesn't have the new supplies they need on the first day, it can make it really hard to succeed, let alone have big dreams. 

For roughly the cost of a week of gas or a visit to a restaurant, you can ensure that an area kid can walk into the first day of school with the new supplies they need on that essential first day of school.

For just $53 you can ensure that a kid doesn’t have to worry about opening their bag for the first time and not having the things they need to succeed in school. 

You can make sure a kid walks into their first day of school with the new crayons, markers, pencils, and notebooks they need all ready for them on the that first day of school. You can do that.

"Wow! These are all for me?!"

I want to tell you about one of those kids. I remember just how excited he was when he opened his bag. His eyes lit up. He took a deep breath, and said, "Wow! These are all for me?!" To him, those supplies were everything. I wish you could have seen it.

For roughly the cost of a week of gas or a visit to a restaurant, you can ensure that an area kid can walk into the first day of school with the new supplies they need on that essential first day of school. For just $53 you can take a "These are all for me?!" and respond with a, "You bet buddy. You deserve them."

You can take care of just one kid for just $53. You can help make sure they can feel normal-and that they can have big dreams on that first day of school.

You can make sure a kid just like that walks into their first day of school with the crayons, markers, pencils, and notebooks they need all ready for them on the that first day of school. That's the impact only you can create.

Your support is needed today to ensure a parent will have access to the supplies they need for their kid this school year. It's a piece-of-mind you can provide for as little as $53 per child. For just $53, you can fill the bag for just one kid. Will you help fill just one?

I know it's so much to ask for right now, but if you're able please help make sure a kid has the supplies they need on the first day.

With Hope,

Dawn Cogan, Executive Director
