A lot of the work that supports children and families across Colorado starts long before an event ever happens.
This week behind the scenes, we are scheduling backpack builds in Longmont, Grand Junction, Denver, Colorado Springs, and Pueblo, with Cañon City in the works as well.
There are phone calls, planning meetings, logistics, partnerships, and countless moving parts that happen before the first backpack is ever packed.
But every event added to the calendar means more children heading into the school year with the supplies they need and more families feeling supported in a season that can be financially stressful.
As a Colorado nonprofit, these planning moments are just as important as the events themselves.
Follow along to stay connected as we prepare for backpack season and continue expanding our impact across Colorado communities.
