It’s okay to create opportunities for those who deserve them!
Back-to-school giveaways are a perfect way to show your support and effort to your community.
Our why
Back in 2021, I felt the urge to host a back-to-school giveaway to provide at least one student with a backpack and supplies to help them and their family during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Just a rising senior in college just trying to pay back how God has blessed my life during that season.
I felt good providing that family with my donation. It made me realize that you can be impactful just by being genuine.
In 2025, I told myself that it’s time to do it again because you have been blessed tremendously over the past few years, months, weeks, days and someone else deserves a blessing as well.
The only difference is that this time, TWO individuals will receive that blessing.
I am doing this because I believe that everyone deserves support in some capacity and you never know who you may bless in the process.
