Back to School Extravaganza
One of our favorite days of the year is quickly approaching on August 2! Each year at the Back to School Extravaganza, Folsom’s neighbors come together to love on local families as they get ready for the first day of school. Last year, 325 under-resourced children received brand new backpacks, gift cards for new shoes, professional haircuts, hygiene products, community resources, and more.
This year, we are working with Chick-fil-A, Folsom Fire, Folsom Police, Folsom’s Hope, and other community partners to give families a fun and memorable experience as they get ready for a new school year. In addition to school supplies, families can enjoy chicken sandwiches, bounce houses, ice cream, meeting firefighters and police officers, and even more.
We Need Your Help
As all of these community partners come together to make the day extra special, we still need your help to provide each student with the required school supplies for their grade level. By sponsoring a student for $25, you can personally touch the life of an under-resourced student in our community. Your donation will provide one child with all the school supplies they need and help them start the new school year feeling confident and prepared.
Right now, $7,000 away from our goal, 280 students still need school supplies, and the Back to School Extravaganza will be here before we know it. Click the button below to sponsor one or more of Folsom’s students and give every child a fabulous first day of school.
