Fill A Backpack

Every Child Deserves A Backpack

Fill A Backpack provides backpacks filled with grade-appropriate school supplies to children in need to maximize their academic potential. In 2023, the program provided over 18,000 backpacks to Colorado kids in need!

2023 Community & Corporate Challenge Winners

In 2016, we began inviting corporations, chambers and local community groups to meet the challenge of filling the backpacks of Colorado kids.  Each year since, this challenge has rallied the community around the common goal of ensuring the underserved children and youths in our community begin each school year with the tools they need to excel academically. This year, our drive provided thousands of backpacks for kids in need.

Congratulations to our Winners

Community Challenge Winners: Broomfield United Methodist Church
Corporate Challenge Winners:  Emerson

How it Works

Our Community Comes Together to Collect School Supplies

A Precious Child’s community of supporters — individuals, businesses and other organizations — host drives to collect new backpacks, school supplies and monetary donations.

Volunteers Fill Backpacks with School Supplies

Generous people like you volunteer their time to fill backpacks with grade-appropriate school supplies.  

We Get Backpacks into the Hands of Kids in Need

Either through our Resource Center or our Agency Partners, we ensure every child gets a backpack filled with grade-appropriate school supplies so they can start the school year feeling confident and prepared to succeed academically.
