Winter Backpack Drive

This December in Brockton, Team Ellie is hosting a Community Backpack Drive. The team is collecting supplies to put in backpacks to give to individuals that are starting recovery or facing homelessness. You can drop off a bag full of supplies or financially contribute to help buy supplies. Every bag makes a difference. Join the team to spread warmth, hope, and dignity to those who need it most.

Toothbrush & toothpaste, soap or body wash, shampoo (travel size), deodorant, feminine hygiene products, and wet wipes.
