Operation Backpack

Our church participated in Operation Backpack, and we were very excited to donate. For less than 20 dollars we were able to purchase the basics of what one student would need to start out a school year.  These backpacks benefited school district U-46 and Burlington 301.  The district I graduated from and the district our future, possible (don't get any ideas people) children will go too.  All together 119 backpacks were collected and will go to children in need!
