Every backpack tells a story.
For some children, a new backpack is just another item on the school supply list.
For others, it’s confidence.
It’s hope.
It’s walking into the first day of school without feeling different.
No child should have to worry about whether they’ll have the supplies they need to learn.
On Saturday, August 1st, you have the chance to change that.
Bring new school supplies, hop on your motorcycle (or come in your car), and help us Stuff the Saddlebags. Every donation helps local children start the school year knowing their community believes in them.
Stay for the food trucks, vendors, live music, and giveaways, but most importantly, come because one small act of kindness can make a lifelong difference for a child.
As Guardians of the Children, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and valued. This is one more way we can stand together and show them they are never alone.
📍 Independence Harley-Davidson – Matthews, NC
🕙 Registration: 10:00 AM
🏍 Kickstands Up: 11:00 AM
🎶 Food Trucks, Vendors, Giveaways & Live Music: 12:00 PM
If you can’t make the ride, you can still make a difference by dropping off school supplies.
Let’s fill every saddlebag with hope and every child’s heart with the reminder that their community cares.
Please like, share, and invite your friends. Together, we can help local kids start the school year with confidence. ❤️🏍📚
