At-Home Projects:
Build a Back-Pack of Love: The Blue Ribbon Project's Backpacks of Love program provides backpacks directly to children going into care. Each backpack is gender and age appropriate. Each backpack is designed specifically for a child of a particular age. Click on the link below for directions and lists for each age and gender and what should be included in a backpack for that child.
So many of our past participants LOVE this project. Many volunteers decide to fill a Back-Pack of Love as a holiday service project with their families. We once again wanted to make it an option for those that enjoy this outreach.
We understand completing a backpack can be costly. This is a great project to team up with another volunteer(s) to complete. Volunteers may want to include groups they are part of such as a church group, office or club to help complete a backpack.
Volunteers may also turn in a partially completed backpack.
