2024 BackPack Giveback Drive

You can make the first day of school special for children in your community!

Thousands of children in Connecticut need our help. With your support, we can deliver 2,000 backpacks filled with essential materials like notebooks, pens, pencils, folders, and rulers to local children. Additionally, information on Goodwill’s free career services and educating their parents on how Goodwill can help them develop skills and find a job to support themselves and their families will be included with each backpack. The Goodwill Backpack Giveback Drive is not just a drive; it’s a lifeline for families.

We aim to provide 2,000 elementary school children with the tools they need to start the 2024-2025 school year on the right foot. A $50 donation will provide five children with supply-filled backpacks. 

Join us, and together, we can ensure that children are well-prepared with the resources for a successful school year, giving them a brighter future.
