On my 40th birthday, I decided to make the celebration count and start raising money for Bucks for Backpacks, instead of receiving gifts for myself. The money goes directly to buy supplies and backpacks to distribute to needy students in Wilson County. Every dollar spent is put to good use!

The first year, my goal was 400 backpacks, for 40 years! This year, the goal is 540 to celebrate 54. Please consider donating $25 or more. For just $25, you can provide the backpack and all the supplies needed for a child to kick off the school year right. #eatmorchikin #domore #whynotyourbest #giving=goodness
