Why Pre-Ordering Supplies Now is the Smartest Way to Help Kids Start School Strong

As a new school year approaches, we are faced with a unique challenge. Rising tariffs, increased supply and shipping costs are putting the number of students we can help at risk. But we refuse to let this stand in the way of supporting the children who need it most.

Behind the scenes, we’ve been working hard to find solutions—and now we have an incredible opportunity: we can pre-order the necessary supplies now, locking in today’s prices before they go up. It’s a simple, smart solution, and it will allow us to help thousands more students start the year with the tools and confidence they deserve.

But we can’t do this without your help. To fully take advantage of this opportunity, we need to raise $124,428. It’s a big goal, but with your support, it’s entirely achievable. Every dollar raised helps fill another backpack, and each backpack holds more than just supplies—it holds hope, confidence, and a message to students: "You matter. We believe in you."

If you’d like to contribute, please consider donating to our "Buy Early" drive. Every dollar counts, and if you're unable to give, sharing this campaign with friends and family can make a huge difference too.

This isn’t just about school supplies—it’s about sending a message of hope to kids across the country. Thank you for being a part of this mission!
