Education is the foundation of a child’s future success in life. And it can be the biggest obstacle to escaping poverty.

Beyond Shelter Frederick’s Backpacks for Bright Futures is a partnership with United Way of Frederick and Frederick County Public Schools to ensure Frederick’s students are prepared for the academic school year. Beyond Shelter provides backpacks to accompany the school supplies collected and purchased through United Way’s Stuff the Bus drive.

THANK YOU for making sure more than 3,000 students have everything they need to start the year off right by providing them with backpacks and supplies for the 2024-2025 academic school year.
