2019 BACKPACK DRIVE
During this special month of October, devoted to increasing awareness about domestic violence and the innumerable human beings impacted by this issue, Be Alright would like to send a huge thank you to everyone who supported our 2019 Back to School Backpack drive and event!
Because of your support, 350 children, teens and young adults starting college, received a new backpack with supplies or gift cards. They were ready for school because of you!!
A heartfelt thanks go to Jordan Kass, Stacia Garriott Kass, Stephanie Batterson, Jennifer Aguilar and everyone at TMC for hosting and organizing our first “backpacking event”!! It was a wonderful way of bringing our BA community of volunteers and supporters together and to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. We are deeply grateful to all of you for your work and vision!
A very special thanks goes to all of the shelters who partnered and collaborated with us again this year: Apna Ghar, House of the Good Shepherd, Madonna House, Greenhouse, Centro Romero, Su Casa, Maria Shelter and Family Rescue!
To every volunteer who organized, packed, shopped and delivered on behalf of our org and these families, thank you!
To every donor, particularly The Tweedy Family and to the great people at Columbia Sports Company who came through with 350 backpacks that we will be able to donate to high school and college students throughout the year, thank you!

Last but not least, to every survivor of domestic violence who inspires us to be of service, thank you for your love and your tremendous courage!
Great Love,
