Backpacks for the kids, fall 2017

“Phase 2” is all packed up and ready to head out…

Friends were so generous this year, in addition to the increased number of backpacks for the homeless, we were also able to “adopt” a local elementary school and supply 20 students will fully loaded backpacks.

As we didn’t know the exact supply list or quantities needed, we tried to cover a lot of generally needed elementary school items so they should have a solid chunk of their needs taken care of before they start back to school.

Thanks to Sabrina and to the DaVita CDM team (including Joe, Bhavna, and others) for help with this effort – your gifts are greatly appreciated…

…and to Grace and Tristan for helping pack everything up as always.
