In support of the Solano County Resource Family Association, the RE/MAX Gold Solano County offices are collecting 250 backpacks/bags to support foster children in their return to school this year:
100 (28 to 30-Liter) backpacks for Youth/teens Middle School to high school age,
100 (18 to 24-Liter) backpacks for elementary age and
50 (12 to 16-Liter) backpacks for toddlers 2-4 (preschool age).
Michelle Perez & Associates has set a goal of donating 15 elementary age backpacks, filled with school supplies for the new school year. If you would like to donate a new backpack or help fill one of these backpacks with school supplies, please email Michelle at michelleperez@sellwithmichelle.com and let her know what you’d like to donate. (We estimate school supplies to cost an average of $70 per student, but any supplies you can donate will be greatly appreciated.)
The last day to drop off your donations is July 22, 2021.
