Thanks to an amazing level of support from longtime donors and new community partners VIP's Third Annual School Supply Drive and Back to School Day was a grade A success!

With your help VIP was able to put together 400 new backpacks full of new school supplies to give away to our clients in foster care and other high-risk situations. This is a new record, and one we are so grateful we were able to reach.

Our Back to School Day event on August 24 was tons of fun, too, for children and families as they picked out their new bags and had one more day of summer fun before school started. We had games, arts & crafts, food, music, and more! We couldn't hav gotten through without the tremendous efforts of our volunteers who helped out all day.
