WJZ’s School Supplies Segment

WJZ included Weekend Backpacks in their series on local organizations distributing school supplies to students in Baltimore. They joined us as Rosedale Federal packed 800 backpacks. This year, we packed and delivered over 3,000 backpacks to students throughout more than 50 schools!

 

Our school supplies are designed for two different age groups, with age-appropriate supplies for each.

  • The purple backpacks are meant for students in kindergarten through second grade and have folders, composition notebooks, pencils, crayons, scissors, pencil sharpeners, and glue sticks.
  • The navy backpacks are meant for students in third grade and older and have folders, paper, spiral notebooks, pencils, colored pencils, pends, rulers, pencil sharpeners, and glue sticks.

Thank you to everyone who helped sponsor, pack, and deliver this back to school season!
