Free backpacks and school supplies will be available to Metro Detroit families
SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Mike Morse Law Firm is kicking off the back-to-school season by announcing the return of Project Backpack. In its ninth year, the program founded by Mike Morse, will surpass 250,000 backpacks and school supplies donated to students in the Detroit metropolitan area.
This year, the firm will once again partner with the Detroit Public School Community District and provide backpacks filled with school supplies to all DPSCD students in grades K-5. In addition to the backpacks distributed directly to DPSCD, the firm will also host a community backpack giveaway for students in other Michigan school districts.
“Each year, Project Backpack grows more and more. It’s what I always hoped for when I began this program nine years ago,” said Morse.
DCSCD students will receive their backpacks the first week of classes at the school they are enrolled in.
Mike Morse Law Firm is excited to invite students from outside DPSCD to its annual Big Tent Backpack Event, which will take place August 13, from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. in the parking lot of the firm’s Southfield office (24901 Northwestern Hwy). Backpacks will be distributed on a first come, first served basis to K-5 students accompanied by a parent or guardian.
In addition to the backpacks, there will be games, giveaways food and more to get everyone excited for another great school year ahead.
In total, Mike Morse Law Firm will provide approximately 30,000 backpacks to local students this year. The backpacks will contain pencils, folders, paper, scissors, crayons, glue, and other classroom essentials. However, this program extends far beyond the pencils and paper. For Morse, the program is about providing students with something many of them wouldn’t otherwise receive – the gift of opportunity.
“Each year, Project Backpack grows more and more. It’s what I always hoped for when I began this program nine years ago,” said Morse. “I want to ensure that the kids of Detroit and surrounding communities have the tools they need for a successful school year – that’s what Project Backpack is all about. And we will continue to make each year bigger and better than the last!”
