First Day of Packing!

7/27/2016

0 Comments

 
With three shopping trips and many supply deliveries in the past week, we were eager to finally get to work. We packed 75 backpacks for Southern Middlesex Opportunity Council today. We really enjoy packing backpacks for SMOC because the organization provides us with some of the favorite colors and characters of the kids, so we can try to personalize the backpacks and supplies to each student. Some of our favorite character recommendations from today included: Finding Dory, dinosaurs, princesses, Frozen, Spiderman, Hello Kitty, Star Wars, and Paw Patrol. The highlight of today was receiving a box filled with 540 rulers, if you can believe such a thing happens here.

Kerri joined our team of directors after her incredible contribution to our success last year as an avid volunteer. She loves helping Backpacks for Kids, but she might like sitting in big boxes just a little bit more.

Follow us on Instagram and Twitter @bfk2001 and like us on Facebook to follow our work later this summer as we begin shopping for supplies and packing backpacks next week! Yesterday, the few supplies leftover from last year were set up, along with 22 huge boxes of backpacks that we received a few weeks ago. We are already in contact with service agencies, ready to receive the names and ages of each child we'll be supporting for the 2016-2017 school year.
