Back to School: 14,000 Backpacks Stuffed with New School Supplies for Needy Children Given Out to 52 Schools
STARS (Supplies To Assist ouR Schools) proudly filled 14,000 backpacks with school supplies and delivered them to 52 schools throughout Florida. How did they do this? There were many volunteers, generous donors and lots of people of all ages that participated in helping students start off their school year right!
A big part of their success was assistance of VolunteerSpot.
The Disney VoluntEARS got involved too. Their co-founder, Joe Hembrooke, had this to say about VolunteerSpot, “Before VolunteerSpot, people would call day or night to volunteer or see when the next opening might be and I would have to remind them a day or two in advance — it was a big job since we have over 100 volunteers on our list wanting to help. Now, with VolunteerSpot I am in “heaven”. No calls at all hours, I don’t have to say yes or no to anyone and really your VolunteerSpot is a joy to use.”
