The Education Partnership

The Education Partnership Providing school supplies for students and teachers in under-resourced schools in Southwestern PA For kids to learn, they need the tools.

It's a problem so simple, it gets overlooked— leaving 1 in 3 local kids without basic school supplies. This year alone, we equipped more than 55,000 local kids to succeed in the classroom. 55,000 more still need our help. With your help, we can reach every student.

Connections don't always end when the teacher leaves the classroom. A former teacher from our program stopped by recently with Kona Ice for the whole team! We got to enjoy a cool treat and a nice break in our day, courtesy of someone we hadn't seen in a while.

It means so much to be thought of, even by those we no longer actively support. When the people we've helped come back to support us, it reminds us why we do this work.

Thank you for showing up! 🎒💙

Bazzy & Bubba's Backpack Brigade at Shults Ford Wexford was nothing short of amazing! Our community came together to donate over 7,000 backpacks and other school supplies for students across Southwestern PA, and we could not be more thankful.

A huge thank you to 100.7 Star and Shults Ford for partnering with us to make this event happen, and an even bigger thank you to every single person who stopped by to drop off a donation. Whether you brought one backpack or a carload of supplies, you helped us get closer to our goal of 10,000 backpacks this year.

Because of you, kids across our region will start the school year with the supplies they need to feel confident and ready to learn. That's the power of this community.

Thank you for showing up for our students. We couldn't do this without you!

This back-to-school season isn't just about teachers coming to us. It's about us going to them!

Our team has been hard at work delivering supplies straight to schools through our Partnership Pantry initiative. It's a young program, but it's already grown to reach 20 schools this year!

We're so thrilled to put the basics directly into classrooms, and we can't wait to reach even more schools next year!
