Who is invited? Invited?!? It's an open house! A revolving door! All are welcome! Just.show.up.
When and where? July 21. Noon. Herber Middle School in Malverne.
Why? Because we can.
How can I help? Many ways. These brand new bags are paid for with "Backpack Sponsorships" of $10. You can sponsor a Backpack Item - yes, your group or business or family can sponsor one item for all 5,000 Backpacks! or you can sponsor Backpacks for an entire classroom of 20 for $200.
You may also help but spreading the word. Forward this link. Let people know of our event.
Is this a business? Nope! We're ALL VOLUNTEER. Always have been, always will be. We are a 501 c 3 non-profit charity, and all donations are tax-deductible!
