Johns Creek Students Donate Backpacks, School Supplies To Children

Staff Report

The Johns Creek High School girls volleyball team started the school year by donating backpacks and school supplies to neighbors in need.

The team coordinated its donations with local charity Pack-A-Backpack for the second year in a row. Pack-a-Backpack used these donations to help needy students in our local Johns Creek elementary, middle, and high schools.

Pack-a-Back Pack is a charity — organized and run by a Johns Creek High School student — that coordinates all donations with school counselors and social workers to bring new backpacks and school supplies to kids in need throughout north Fulton County.

Their goal is to ensure that all students have the correct school supplies to succeed in school and enjoy their learning experiences. For more information, visit Pack-A-Backpack’s website.
