The work
Every student deserves to walk into school feeling prepared, confident, and excited for what comes next.
For students experiencing homelessness, something as simple as having a great backpack, fresh notebooks, working pens, and the right school supplies can make a meaningful difference in how they start their day.
Together with School on Wheels, we want to create back to school kits that feel like so much more than donated supplies. Each kit is designed to feel cool, thoughtful, and personal, with a backpack a student can be proud to carry and everything they need to begin the academic year ready to learn.
Each kit can include a premium backpack, pencil pouch, custom pens and pencils, marble notebook, spiral notebook, calculator, and other classroom essentials.
Your donation helps put a complete kit directly into the hands of a student who needs it.
You can sponsor one student, several students, or help fund an entire group of kits.
Because being ready for school should be something every student gets to experience.
