BackPack Beginnings

BackPack Beginnings mission is to deliver child-centric services to feed, comfort and clothe children in need. By ensuring food and basic necessities are given directly to children in need, we make a positive and lasting impact on their health and well-being. WHY WE DO IT BackPack Beginnings was established in 2010 in response to the growing needs of underprivileged children in our community. This year an estimated 41,000, over 56%, of children in our schools qualify for meal assistance and over 8,500 children experienced childhood trauma such as abuse, neglect, homelessness, or refugee resettlement in Guilford County.
