BACKPACKS FOR SUCCESS 2025


Because of your generosity, we provided 620 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to children in our community who needed them most.

The Backpacks for Success initiative engaged local partner agencies—including schools, social-service organizations, and community groups—to ensure every backpack reached the families who would benefit most. Backpacks were delivered to:

  • Algoma District School Board
  • Algoma Family Services
  • Batchewana Health Services
  • Big Brothers Big Sisters
  • Children’s Aid Society
  • Huron-Superior Catholic District School Board
  • Indigenous Friendship Centre
  • Pauline’s Place
  • SOYA
  • Thrive

Thank You to Our Amazing Sponsors
