We are providing teachers & students with necessary school supplies. We are also engaging the community with food, music and activities.

Schools in minority communities are underfunded and often lack the resources for teachers and students to succeed. Our goal is to ensure that the needs of the teachers and the students they serve are met beyond the school district’s budget. We believe in the impact of education in our communities and strive to empower and support our community members in this area.
BE Impactful & Community Change with Purpose aims to provide teachers and students with the necessary resources to succeed. The Back to School Bash ensures that teachers and students in our community have the resources they need to thrive during the school year. The event also allows community members to interact with one another. We curate events that connect donations and giveaways with community experiences.
The Back to School Bash supplies will be divided into two categories: those for teachers and those for students. There will be various games, educational components, and food for everyone (while supplies last).
