Families First

Back-to-School Bash is a great opportunity to give back to the community and see your impact in action.

This year, our goal is to distribute over 900 backpacks, and we still need your support to get there. We're looking to welcome even more community partners and reach more families than ever before.

Your gift goes further than you think. For example, $150 sends 10 students to school with a backpack fully packed with supplies. $75 could provide the event lunch for 25 children. All gifts build families up for back-to-school success.

Each summer, Families First brings Atlanta together for our Back-to-School Bash — a celebration where students and families receive backpacks packed with supplies, bags of groceries, free lunch, fun activities, and access to vital community resources.

Last year, we served 1,012 attendees, distributed 792 backpacks, and welcomed 35 community partners. This summer, we're going bigger.

Every dollar puts real tools in a child's hands and real confidence in their step on the first day of school.

Whether you give $15 or $1,500, your generosity directly equips kids who need it most. No amount is too small.
