A full backpack on the first day of school

Hi [First name],

This fall, [Name] started the school year with a full backpack of supplies. Our club partnered with the school counselor, and [Name] walked in on the first day ready to learn.

Your past support helped build service projects like this one.

On Giving Tuesday, our goal is $1,000 to fill 20 backpacks with school supplies for local kids who need them. Serving the children of our community is why we do this work.

Would you come back with an early gift? Early gifts build momentum for the day itself.

Some kids start the school year without notebooks or folders. We work with the school counselor to reach them quietly. A $50 gift fills one backpack.

Every dollar goes to the program because our platform, Zeffy, is free for nonprofits. If your business would like to match gifts or share this with your network, I'd be grateful.
