Each year, school supply lists get longer and more expensive. With rising inflation and growing costs, many families struggle to equip their kids with the hundreds of dollars worth of school supplies they need to succeed in the classroom.
At The Mustard Seed, we are committed to reducing the financial burden of families in need by providing kids the best chance at learning.
You Can Make This Happen
With your support, 1,000 backpacks will find their way to kids who may otherwise start the school year unprepared.
You can donate completed backpacks or individual school supplies which will help kids succeed in the classroom this fall.
All backpacks will be provided to children through our Community Support Programs and Neighbour Centres in Calgary.
