All donated backpacks will be distributed to students through the Open Door Network and the Kern River Valley Bridge Connection. These organizations, along with many others, play a crucial role in supporting the educational needs of our local community.
“I am thrilled to host this backpack drive and support our local students,” said Senator Shannon Grove. “With your generous donations, we can make sure that every child starts the school year with the tools they need to learn and feel confident in the classroom.
