Our backpack drive is here! Every year, Samaritan House provides backpacks filled with age-appropriate supplies to low-income children and teens in San Mateo County. Together, with your support, we’re able to send kids back to school, ready for a year of learning and success. Donations of any size are fully tax-deductible and provide an opportunity for children and teens to start the 2024-2025 school year with confidence!

Supporting the drive is simple! All you have to do is visit our drive page and purchase any of the stylish, brand-new backpacks. Alternatively, you can also click here to donate funds toward the purchase of a backpack kit. 

Ayudemos a nuestros clientes más pequeños a prepararse para un año escolar exitoso. ¡Juntos, podemos hacer que la vuelta al cole sea un momento alegre para todos nuestros vecinos necesitados!
