We're excited to announce that NEF is once again backing the Start2Finish Backpack Program, which provides essential school supplies to thousands of Canadian kids who start the school year without the necessary tools.
Every September, Start2Finish collaborates with school boards and local administrators to identify children in marginalized communities across Canada who are most in need.
The program helps "even the playing field" by equipping students with backpacks filled with 6 months' worth of supplies, setting them up for a successful school year and beyond.
This year, our amazing NEF team collected $668 and worked together to fill 90 backpacks with all the essentials!
We are proud to be a part of this incredible initiative, helping to empower the next generation.
