❤️🎒 100 Backpacks. 100 Opportunities to Start the School Year Strong.

We are incredibly grateful to Feed the Children and Niagara Bottling Company in Hamburg for their generous donation of 100 backpacks for students in our middle school community.

Each backpack is filled with school supplies, hygiene products, and a shelf-stable meal to help families offset some of the costs that come with getting ready for a new school year.

A huge thank you also goes to the Niagara volunteers who took the time to fill each backpack with care. We are fortunate to have such a strong community partner supporting the children and families of the Hamburg Area School District. ❤️

These backpacks are available for families who could use a little extra help getting ready for the 2026-2027 school year.

If your family would benefit from one, please call the school office at 610-562-2241. We will make arrangements for you to pick one up.

No explanation is needed. We are simply here to help.

Thank you again to Feed the Children, Niagara Bottling Company, and the Niagara team for helping our students start the school year feeling prepared, supported, and ready to soar! 🦅❤️
