<div><b>This is not just a backpack drive</b>.

</div>

<div>This is Puerto Rico showing up for its children — when the system won’t.

<div><b>What’s Happening?
</b>
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We’re hosting a Back-to-School Book-bag drive at a public school in Manatí, Puerto Rico — a town full of heart, but forgotten by the government.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The goal?

</div>

<div>• Bring joy

</div>

<div>• Ease the burden on teachers

</div>

<div>• Make sure no student walks in empty-handed

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We’re giving students:

</div>
<div><br />
</div>

<div> A brand-new backpack filled with supplies
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

<div> Music, games, &amp; laughter to remind them they matter

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>And we’re giving teachers:

</div>

<div>✏️ Classroom essentials

</div>

<div>❤️ Support — so they don’t have to keep paying out of pocket.
</div>
<div><br />
