Help A Kid Start School Right

July 15, 2024 by Nelson Barry III

Urban Angels SF launched it’s 6th annual Backpacks of Love program on July 1st. From now to July 31st, we are seeking to raise $30,000 so that we can provide 1,000 underserved students in San Francisco with brand new, high-quality backpacks filled with new school supplies so they can start the school year next month with confidence and high self-esteem.

The recipients are mainly black and brown children who are either unhoused or come from families that are living at the poverty level here in San Francisco. These supplies are among the most basic necessities for students as they start the school year without which it will be very difficult for them to succeed.

Urban Angels SF is inviting anyone who would like to support this worthy effort to donate at www.UrbanAngelsSF.org or mail a check payable to UASF to 5228 Diamond Heights Blvd., San Francisco, CA 94131. All donations are tax-deductible. Urban Angels SF is a 501(c)(3) tax ID #84-3536488.

“Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.” John Dewey

Grateful to be in Service,
