Backpacks for Hope

Make a Donation

Our 12th Annual Backpacks for Hope campaign launches June 2023! This year's collections are now closed.

ABOUT

Collecting new backpacks and school supplies to distribute to children of survivors in domestic violence shelters across Texas. Backpacks are filled with school supplies, safety planning literature, and a discreet tag that lists TAP’s toll-free legal line.

WAYS TO GET INVOLVED

• Host a Public Drop Off Location or Collection Drive/Event by first filling out the Collection Form to get signed up!
  • ​Set up a large box in a prominent area with our Bin Poster attached or host an event where attendees can bring a backpack, supplies, or cash donations!
• Build a Backpack for Hope by shopping for a backpack, filling it with school supplies from our list, then dropping it off at a Public Drop Off location near you.
   
• Shop online for backpacks and school supplies directly from our Amazon Wish List. They ship directly to us.
   
• Volunteer your time to help get Backpacks for Hope ready for shipment! Contact volunteer@TexasAdvocacyProject.org for more information.
