All Students Should Have Access to the Tools and Confidence Needed to

Learn & Thrive in School Regardless of their Zip Code

ANNUAL BACKPACK DRIVE

Help us prepare kids to go back to school prepared! Our goal is to donate 25,000 backpack + school supply kits this year. We have incredible corporate and non-profit partners to help us achieve this goal, but also need the help of individual donors, which made up 25% of our donations in 2023 - amazing!

With underwriting from corporations, foundations, and individual donors, Sydney Paige works with schools and community-based non-profits nationwide to arrange local giveaways of our high-quality, kid-approved backpacks, full sets of grade-appropriate school supplies, brand new books, art kits and so much more.

In all that we do, we maintain a laser focus on self-worth. That's why we're so passionate about quality, the "little things" (like notes of encouragement), and letting kids choose their own backpacks and books. All of this is absolutely necessary in order to have a real and sustainable impact.

 
To date, we’ve been able to help more than 250,000 students!

TESTIMONIALS

"We received a donation from Sydney Paige and got a wide variety of styles that were perfect for all ages from 7-18!

Every kid walked away happy and so excited for their backpack.

 

Not only were all of the bags stylish and cool, but the quality of the bags are AMAZING - these kids will be wearing these backpacks for years."

"What a difference these backpacks and supplies make to our kids! My class homework completion rate went from a very sad 33% to 100% and holding!

 

The kids LOVE their backpacks! They feel special and BELIEVED IN because of this gift. As a teacher, seeing my kids more engaged in class & excited to do their work is the best gift of all. This is the foundation to great success!"
