Jillian’s Backpack Drive is committed to helping children in the community feel good about starting their first day of school. We do this by collecting backpacks, filling them with school supplies, and donating them to local non-profits who provide services for children and families in need.

We feel that by being prepared for the first day of school with a backpack and the right school supplies, many children will have the confidence to work towards having a successful school year.
