[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We hosted one at my church last weekend. The bags are mostly really cheap. Also, the backpacks weren’t pre-packed at our event, so the child (parent) chose a backpack, and then came over for the appropriate school supplies (we pulled lists by grade, and had bundles ready to go). The large backpacks were snatched up first, by kids who should have gotten a smaller bag. About halfway through, there were only small backpacks left, but lots of high school supplies.[/quote] Thank you and your church for being caring. Keep in mind that parents might choose a larger backpack for a younger child because the child also needs to be able to fit items other than school supplies in it. One tip to future donors might be to purchase only larger bags. [/quote]
