Imagine the joy on a child's face when they receive a brand-new backpack filled with supplies. You can share a package of freshly sharpened pencils so they can solve problems. You can offer a rainbow of crayons so they can draw their dreams. You can give them a backpack so they can carry their hopes wherever they go.
