One backpack per child (ages 5-12) will be given away, while supplies last. In addition, one bag of kid-friendly groceries will also be distributed to each car, while supplies last.

Organizers ask that everyone stay in their vehicle at all times as volunteers place items in your trunk and close the trunk before you drive away. This is in an effort to keep students, families and volunteers safe.
The Multicultural Centre of SWFL has collaborated with local organizations to provide food and supplies for families.
