We would like to extend a huge thanks to all of the individuals, companies, schools, community organizations and volunteers who helped make the 11th annual Project: Back to School such a resounding success. We were able to collect and distribute nearly 3,000 backpacks filled with school supplies like crayons, notebooks, pencils, and binders into the eager hands of the girls and boys who need them most. Through the dedication of so many compassionate New Yorkers, we got more bags to more kids before the first day of school than ever before! Thank you for your support!
