Special Project: Back to School!
Every year, the Mary Parker Foundation hosts a summer celebration for kids, the Back-to-School Backpack Bash! At the Bash, we give much-needed school supplies to hundreds of children in our community. Because of current Covid restrictions, we’ve been unable to throw a party this year. But we ARE going to deliver. Can you help?Our 2024 goal is to ship school supplies to 1000 children throughout the year. You can make a cash contribution, or buy individual School Supply Boxes on Amazon for just $38 each.
Have more time on your hands and want to help? Be sure to subscribe to our newsletter and alerts and we’ll keep you informed.
We will need you to help us pack students’ backpacks with school supplies and basics.
We will need volunteers to help us distribute backpacks at the event.
Is your organization looking for opportunities to volunteer as a team? Contact us for more information.
