Back to School Backpack Project
Providing school supplies is a stressful part of going back to school for many families. Provide these needed supplies for underprivileged children in our area. The backpacks will be purchased in bulk and filled by churches with necessary school supplies. We will be providing over 5,000 backpacks this year.

Project dates: July 12, 19 & 26, 2009.

Public Schools Work Day
Together we can prepare our school buildings and support our Administrators and Teachers in our lower-income / under-resourced schools by painting, cleaning windows, landscaping and organizing classrooms.

Project Date: August 8, 2009.
