2016 Operations Backpack Distribution

The Operation Backpack Drive is a charitable initiative where people donate to provide backpacks and school supplies to needy Jamaican children. Since the backpack project was launched in 2010, we have distributed over 5,000 backpacks to the children in Jamaica. This initiative seeks your help as we continue to make positive contributions to the educational development of the most vulnerable members of our communities in Jamaica, our children. Many children in Jamaica are not participating in the educational process because they lack the necessary resources to attend school, including basic school supplies.
