Send a student back to school ready
Your gift fills a sturdy backpack with notebooks, pencils, pens, a calculator, a ruler, glue and a lunch container. A child walks in on the first day with everything on the class list.
Being ready on day one helps a child believe they belong in the room.
Why it matters: Campaign 2000 reports that 18.3% of children in Canada, about 1.4 million, lived in poverty in 2023, the third yearly rise in a row. Source
On the honour card: “In your honour, a Lethbridge student started the year with a full backpack.”
