A big thank you to Banner Associates and their employees for their generous support of the Brookings Backpack Project.
During the holiday season, Banner team members chose nonprofits that matter to them in lieu of traditional staff gifts. The Backpack Project was one of the organizations selected, and their employees donated $3,150 to help support our mission.
The donation was presented to Cathy Ching, Executive Director of the Brookings Backpack Project, by Shawna Witt, HR Director at Banner Associates and Vice Chair of the Brookings Backpack Project Board.
We are grateful for community partners like Banner and their employees who continue to support local children and families.
