Backpack Day is back—and this year, every church gets one shot to join in!

This year, reaching your community with the gospel and meeting needs can be as simple as packing a backpack! The gift of a backpack filled with necessities is a small gesture of care and a catalytic symbol of hope for a child or family in need.

Backpacks can open the door to a longer-term relationship with families and schools in your community.

To ensure your Backpack Day is a success, Send Relief is offering your church packs of 48 or 72 bags for free – while supplies last! This is available to those in the 48 contiguous states and Canada.

When you receive your free bags, your church can fill them with all the back-to-school essentials, ensuring that underserved children in your community feel seen and loved as they enter a new school year. Use this ministry guide to discover ways to support your community through backpacks. This year, Send Relief is recognizing August 3 as Backpack Day.

After you complete the form, someone from our team will reach out to confirm your order.

The heart of Backpack Day is this catalytic event sparks an ongoing movement of churches serving their community and sharing the love of Christ.
