ROSWELL, GA — North Fulton Community Charities is collecting new backpacks filled with school supplies for the annual Back-to-School program. "This year, after the disruption caused by COVID-19, there is a need to restore a sense of normalcy for children starting school," Director of Development Sherri Morgan said in a news release. "A backpack does so much more than simply carry school supplies. It sends the message that students are important and so is their education." North Fulton Community Charities is asking community members to donate new backpacks filled with school supplies for elementary, middle and high school students. Donors can also choose to make a financial contribution to purchase backpacks. School supply lists, donation links, and volunteer opportunities can be found online. Backpacks and supplies will be distributed July 29 through Aug. 1 to registered participants. Registration is required for qualified families residing in North Fulton.
