Backpack & School Supply Drive
Thank you to all who contributed to a very successful Backpack & School Supply Drive! Watch our recap video below!
Thank you for making our 2024 Backpack & School Supply Drive a huge success!
Every summer we can't wait to welcome Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) students back into our school buildings for another year of dynamic and engaging learning. We are just as eager to help make sure that students start off the new school year right–by connecting them with essential school supplies and backpacks that community organizations all across Alexandria are collecting or distributing.
For the 2024-25 school year, our goal was to collect 3,500 backpacks with school supplies to distribute across all ACPS schools and students that are in-need. Help us get there by collecting backpacks and school supplies, purchasing from our wishlist, or donating directly towards the drive.
