Thank you to Embarc General Manager, George Holmes, for supporting AEF’s Backpack and School Supply drive with a generous grant! This year we are supporting 800 Alameda low-income students by providing them with new backpacks and quality school supplies so that they are equipped for success on the first day of school! We appreciate Embarc’s support of this important effort!

When the Alameda Education Foundation (AEF) began running our annual backpack and school supply drive in 2012, the Alameda Point Collaborative (APC) was one of our first community partners. According to APC Children and Youth Manager Sara Christensen, APC initially lined up backpacks on a table for parents to pick up. But the staff at APC soon recognized that AEF’s annual donation of backpacks and school supplies provided an opportunity to do much more for their families.
