Mark your calendar to join United Way of Central Ohio, Columbus Crew and NBC4 on Tuesday, August 6 to Stuff the Backpack for students in central Ohio! With help from hundreds of volunteers, we will work together at Lower.com Field to send more students to school feeling confident, prepared and ready to learn.
Thanks to generous donations from corporate partners and other supporters, we will have equitable school supplies for each backpack. If you or your company would like to contribute to our supplies, you can make a donation through our campaign partner, Parichute. $10 provides one backpack for a local student and $270 provides backpacks for an entire classroom.
If you’d like to help us stuff backpacks in person, you can register for a volunteer shift through our event partner Besa.
Many thanks to our partners and sponsors of this event:
