Sign up to host a back pack drive today! In four Bay Area Counties, 227,826 children are enrolled in the California Free or Reduced Lunch Program (Title I). In 2007, together with our community, we helped 15,000 low-income children in the Title I program by providing them with a new backpack containing tools they need to succeed.
This program operates much like The Family Giving Tree's Holiday Program, where wish cards are located in central locations in Bay Area businesses and schools. Host companies, groups, organizations or schools display our colorful posters attractively decorated with cards listing needed school supplies. Individuals have two ways to participate: take a card and shop for a new backpack and fill it with recommended school supplies or provide funds either by mail, phone, or online and we will purchase the items. We collect and sort the backpacks, and distribute them to low-income students via teachers and social service agencies.
