Dear Community Partners, Volunteers, Vendors, Donors, and Supporters,

On behalf of the Back-to-School Committee and Catholic Charities, thank you for joining us and helping make our Back-to-School Supply Giveaway & Resource Fair such a wonderful success!

Because of your generosity, time, and dedication, we were able to distribute 268 backpacks filled with school supplies to students in Kindergarten through 12th grade, helping families prepare for a successful school year. Seeing the smiles on the faces of children and parents alike was a reminder of what can be accomplished when a community comes together.

In addition to the backpack giveaway, families had the opportunity to connect with valuable community resources, enjoy activities, and celebrate together. We were also excited to recognize several lucky attendees with raffle prizes, adding even more fun and excitement to the day.

This event would not have been possible without the incredible support of our committee members, volunteers, sponsors, donors, vendors, and community partners. Your commitment to serving our families and investing in our youth truly made a lasting impact.

Thank you for being part of this meaningful event. We are grateful for your partnership and look forward to working together again to continue strengthening our community.
