In 2025, Embrace USA provided nearly 4,300 backpacks to children nationwide in 2025. This year, we hope to reach even more students and make an even greater impact.

A donation of just $25 can provide one filled backpack — and can mean the difference between a child starting school feeling empowered or ashamed. It sends the message: You matter. Your education matters. You are not alone.

And the impact resonates beyond the first day of school. Children who receive supplies from Embrace Relief’s Backpack and School Supply Drives carry a sense of support and confidence with them all year long. Moreover, many parents express deep relief, saying that the assistance eased financial stress and allowed them to use those funds for food or doctors’ appointments.

Donate today, and your generosity can help ensure that more children have the opportunity to start the school year with the resources — and hope — they deserve.
