Project Description Country: USA Location: Anaheim Total Budget: $7,000 Area of Focus: Basic education and literacy Activity Type: Education: General Summary: 600 Backpacks with supplies for at risk youth This is a community service project for school children from low-income families. These new backpacks loaded with school supplies will alleviate some of the peer pressure experienced by these children. Too many children in our community are falling behind in school and life before they even get started. This will help them with their self-esteem, creativity and confidence. Every member in the club will be involved either purchasing the supplies, backpacks or filling the back packs, writing personal notes of encouragement to the distribution of the backpacks to the children.
