Disadvantaged School Children Benefit from Roseville City School District Backpack Program
Roseville, Calif. – When children are in need, local nonprofit Tommy Apostolos Fund (TAF) steps up to help. Recently, Roseville City School District reached out to TAF for funding to support its Child Backpack Program. TAF’s board of directors quickly made a unanimous decision to approve the ask and donate backpacks full of school staples such as pencils, notebooks and more to local elementary and middle schools.
“It is our passion to help local children get the materials they need to succeed,” said Hallie Romero, executive director of Tommy Apostolos Fund. “In addition to having a bag to hold their items, we hope the backpacks will help the children feel prepared and motivated to go to school.”
Community support
TAF is incredibly grateful to participate in this program and would have not been able to do so without the support from generous sponsors, community members and friends.
