Help Us...Help children in need.
Two moms on a mission to help kids in need. Backpacks 4 Kids (BP4K), started in 2013 and has transformed into a successful community initiative over the last 10 years.
Backpacks4Kids (BP4K, Inc.) is a 501 (c)(3) and is funded by local businesses and community partners. BP4K raises funds to provide backpacks to Pinellas County Title 1 Schools. A “Title 1” school has a large concentration of low-income students & receives supplemental funds to assist in meeting student’s educational goals
Your support allows us to provide backpacks and school supplies like:
Pronged Folders
Pencils
Crayons
Notebooks
Glue Sticks
Scissors
12 Pack Colored Pencils
Comp Books (Solid Colors)
Wide Ruled Paper
1.5 Inch Ring Binder
"Because we are title 1 any supplies that we get help out each class so much and takes much stress off of the teacher."
Kristen Gericke, Pinellas Park Middle
"BP4K helps tremendously since a lot of our families are already struggling to purchase school clothes, so one less thing to worry about is always a huge blessing to them."
Carlos Childs, Campbell Park
"At our Back To School opening, scholars were allowed to pick a backpack and supplies. It seems like something simple but when your economic level is low and you have multiple scholars, this can be an added stress for a single parent."
Vinda Moore, Melrose Elementary
