“Stuff the Backpack” Campaign a Huge Success!
How do you help get the school year started off right? Supply students with new backpacks and school supplies! This was the mission as the Brigade Boys & Girls Club ran its first annual “Stuff the Backpack” Campaign. Local businesses and individuals sponsored our Club kids by supplying backpacks and buying grade-specific school supplies. The campaign’s original goal was to provide 50 backpacks to our Club kids, but due to the overwhelming response, we were able to provide over 120 backpacks!!
Our most generous donator was Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Realty, who supplied 76 of the 120 backpacks and also helped stock our POWER HOUR classrooms with extra paper, pencils, markers, rulers, calculators and much, much more! Other community sponsors include Carolina Roofing Specialist, Register’s Auto Glass, Wilmington Police Department, Keller Williams Realty, Berkshire Property Advisors, Pine Valley Church of God and Port City Community Church.
Thanks to everyone for making this campaign a huge success!
