We are individuals who help Bellevue School District students from low-income families get a "Good Start Back to School" each fall. We are led by a small ecumenical volunteer steering committee, and we welcome new and previous donors, including congregations, organizations, businesses, schools and individuals. Volunteers are always welcome as well. As individuals we can't do it alone, but together what a difference we can make, backpack by backpack!
