Last year North Fulton Community Charities collected and distributed more than 900 sturdy backpacks filled with school supplies to provide under-served children in the community with the tools they need to succeed during the school year.

The community is invited to help. There are four ways to participate: donate a pre-filled backpack, sponsor the event, provide funding and/or volunteer to help stuff bags.

The Back to School Program is open for all existing NFCC families. All participants must be qualified and pre-registered before the event.

Information on ways to help or register to receive a backpack: www.nfcchelp.org/how-we-help/back-to-school-program/.
