Deliver Backpack Smiles Today!

1 in 3 school-aged children lives below the poverty line in the Bay Area. When families budgets are strained, backpacks and school supplies become luxuries. Family Giving Tree believes every child deserves to feel the confidence of being prepares on the first day of school. With your help, we will equip students with the tools they need to succeed this school year.

Your VGT Donation at Work

Last year, we achieved an incredible feat - thanks to your generous online donations, over $12,500 was raised so children could start their fall semester off on the right foot. Let's join together again this coming season and make sure they have everything they need!

"I was really excited about my backpack because it was a LOL doll one. I love it!" - 2nd grader

"We have had a lot of new students from out of the country and coming here with very little or no income. You can see the relief in their faces when we tell them they don't have to worry about buying anything for them.?

Our families and our school are so appreciative of this donation. Thank you for being able to support our school. - Yadira; Jason Dahl Elementary
