2019 BACK TO SCHOOL BACKPACK DRIVE

Dear Be Alright Friends and Family!

We are excited and proud to announce that this year we are celebrating our 10th Anniversary of the Be Alright Backpack Drive! This is hard for us to believe but that means we have provided backpacks and supplies to thousands of young survivors of Domestic Violence (DV) and their families since 2009!  
  
In this spirit, we are increasing our support this year to 353 kids and teens, many living in Chicagoland area DV shelters. Servicing well over 300 students is not only a record for us, but has given us an opportunity to start a more streamlined approach for our sponsors and volunteers.  What has not changed in any way is that we need YOUR help to support these wonderful kids and their families so they
are ready for school in just 5 weeks!
