🎒 Backpack Drive to Benefit the Emmanuel Cancer Foundation
📍 Courtyard at 217 Prospect Ave, Cranford, NJ
🗓️ Saturday, August 10
⏰ 2:00–4:00 PM
Join us for a meaningful afternoon of giving back! We're assembling backpacks filled with essential school supplies to support children served by the Emmanuel Cancer Foundation (ECF)—and we need your helping hands!
What’s Happening:
We'll gather in the courtyard at 217 Prospect Ave to fill brand-new backpacks with notebooks, crayons, pencils, glue, folders, and more. These fully stocked school bags will be delivered directly to ECF families, helping local children affected by pediatric cancer start the school year with confidence and support.
About the Emmanuel Cancer Foundation:
ECF provides free, individualized support to New Jersey families facing pediatric cancer. Their holistic services include in-home counseling, advocacy with insurance and schools, emergency financial aid, and a statewide food pantry. Most importantly, they offer hope and relief during the most difficult time in a family’s life.
By participating in this event, you’ll be helping children with cancer and their siblings feel seen, prepared, and cared for as they return to school.
👧🧒 All ages welcome – great opportunity for families and community groups!
Let’s come together to pack with purpose 💪❤️
