Help students be prepared for the start of the new school year. Throughout the year we apply for grants to help fund backpacks for low-income students in Lake County. We then purchase the backpacks and supplies then stuff them in July. If you’re interested in helping us stuff backpacks this school year, please contact Amber Castellano for more information.
