Hi Friend,
School’s out! Remember that feeling? You might now be shifting into summer
mode.
At VOA, we care deeply about this time of year—it’s when we launch **Operation
Backpack®,** our annual drive helping kids in need start school proud and
prepared— _even if the first day still feels far off._
Our teams are already out in the community—organizing school supply drives,
planning back-to-school fairs and collecting donations at events.
**And thanks to kindness like yours,** thousands of children have gone back
to school these past years with confidence, dignity and the supplies they need
to thrive.
** _[I hope you’ll join us again this year, Friend.]([link removed])_**
You can be there for even more kids heading to school who need someone in
their corner.

**It might still be summer, but families are already stretched—and we’re
working fast to meet the need.** Your support will mean everything. To the
kids. And to families we’re serving this summer and all year long.
With gratitude,

**P.S. I’ll be in touch with more stories as Operation Backpack® picks up
steam nationwide—but I hope you’ll be part of it from the start!**
