The Importance of Community Partners
Community partners are essential to the success of Back 2 School America. By working with hundreds of organizations—including schools, nonprofits, and government agencies—we ensure that our school supplies reach the children who need them most. These partnerships allow us to expand our impact, streamline distribution, and connect with local communities in meaningful ways. Together, we are breaking down barriers to education and giving students the tools they need to succeed.
Below is a list of some of the incredible partners who help make this mission possible:
