Annual Backpack Drive
Join us and the Family Giving Tree's annual backpack drive.
For over ten years Tech CU has partnered with the Family Giving Tree to raise funds and awareness for underserved children in our community.
Challenges for in-need children begin early. By third grade, children living below the poverty line are, on average, already two years behind their peers in reading and math.
For these families, books and school supplies are beyond their reach financially. We are asking for your help to reach our goal of providing 225 backpacks to low-income students throughout the Bay Area.
Donate a new backpack or school supplies to children, grades K-12 and give these kids a chance at success for the new school year.
Couple of ways to participate/donate:
- Backpack cards with a list of recommended supplies are located in each branch.
- Donate online at the Family Giving Tree web site.
- Purchase a backpack (no red or blue colors) and/or supplies. Drop your donation off at any Tech CU branch.
All donations must be in by August 2nd.
