URGENT: Help Us Cross the Finish Line
Operation Backpack distribution is almost here.
Community drives naturally create shortages in some areas and surpluses in others. Financial gifts give us the flexibility to fill those gaps and ensure children receive the resources they need before school begins.
Give today and help us finish strong.

“Last year my two oldest children were blessed to be able to be recipients of the VOA backpack giveaway. My son, whose in highschool was so appreciative of the items he received. With his AP classes those school supplies helped him so much. We are so appreciative of this and the people who donate and help make this possible. Thank you!”
