Osborn Family Health Center Held Backpack Drive

Drive Supported Local Children in Need

Osborn Family Health Center recently held its 13th annual Backpack Drive. More than 250 donated backpacks were stuffed with new pencils, notebooks, crayons, folders, and any extra item that made returning to school exciting for the children.

Donations were made by community members, Osborn and Lourdes employees, as well as New Jersey Primary Care Association, and the Joseph Lacroce Foundation. Osborn offers its thanks all those who donated.
