Back to School Kits: The Future of Giving

Students need supplies. As concerned citizens, business owners and nonprofit leaders, it's our job to empower students not only with encouraging words as they return to a new learning environment this fall but also equip them with the tools they need to succeed.

Parents are facing the reality there might not be enough in the budget to send their children to school with required personal protection equipment let alone a backpack full of supplies. With unemployment at an all time high and more than 2 Million positive cases of Coronavirus in the U.S., marginalized groups like the homeless are not the only ones calling for help. Your neighbor down the street might be struggling to keep the lights on with depleted funds. 

If any of the below scenarios speak to you, we can help.

Are you:

  • A nonprofit administrator trying to host a virtual drive safely and the pieces just aren't coming together?
  • A business owner needing to boost morale and give back to struggling employees after a round of layoffs?
  • An individual working remote with your company and want a way to help children this fall?
  • An organization pivoting to in-kind good requests due to reallocation of cash funding?
  • A development director trying to figure out where to store your back to school donations....not at your house?
  • A volunteer coordinator realizing you cannot put your volunteer staff in jeopardy to pack backpacks with critical goods?
  • A school teacher, principal, administrator or PTO parent concerned about students under your care returning unprepared with supplies or necessary personal protective equipment?

Whatever your situation may be, there is a solution. Working hand-in-hand with our sustainable suppliers, we are offering prepackaged back to school kits. 

  • No Storage Issues: We can hold them through the summer or send them immediately.
  • No Health Scares: The kits come packed and ready to go so you can get them directly to students and their families. Keep your employees and volunteers safe.
  • Competitive Pricing: Kits include brand names with up to 22 unique items and no shipping fees!
  • Ease of Ordering: You can preorder to ensure a minimum number of kits are guaranteed, share a wish list with your donor base, or both. We also have multiple options for payment. Just ask!
  • Open to Everyone: Individuals, Nonprofits or Businesses can ABSOLUTELY take control with a few easy clicks. Plus we have dedicated team members here to walk you through the ordering process step-by-step.
  • Stay Connected: We are living in a remote world; keep lines of communication open with a simple URL link and the best, affordable technology.
