Thank you. Your gift of time today will impact the lives of children that are excited to have education in their lives, to chase dreams, and to work to make the world we share a better place.

Sixteen million kids in the United States come from families struggling with extreme poverty. If these students are lucky enough to attend school, they often don’t have the resources to purchase the necessary school supplies. WeHero, alongside our corporate and non-profit partners, are aggressively trying to resolve this issue. We are sourcing the necessary supplies to make these students successful in the classroom and to create equal opportunities for those underserved.

You are now part of this movement so thank you!

The Experience – This event delivers support in two key areas:

Partnering with school districts and local government agencies to ensure that the fifteen million children who rely on schools for access to educational materials have supplies outside of the classroom.
Generating awareness around gaps in education and how education is one of the most important factors for creating social equality.

Today, you’ll be putting together education access kits for students. The supplies you are providing are difficult to procure in the areas where these kits will be going, or are unaffordable for families. The kits are designed to be fun and to inspire the kids to want to go and stay in school. You’ll be adding your own touch and message to each kit you’ll produce, drawing fun pictures on the bags, and leaving the kids letters of encouragement. The most powerful aspect of these kits, are the drawings on the bags and the letters you leave them. These notes inspire children by showing them that someone in their local community or across the globe, thought of them, and gave them a very special kit to go to school.
