Back-to-School Backpack Event

Please join us for the Back-to-School Backpack Event at Norte Vista High School on July 26, 2025. This event is exclusively for students in grades TK-12 who are either foster youth or experiencing housing insecurity and attend a Riverside County school district or charter school. We’ll have a grab-and-go lunch, new shoes, backpacks filled with school supplies, haircut vouchers, and more, while supplies last. Although all activities and services at this event are free, please bring proof of insurance for your children, if available*. This will allow providers to seek other available options for services.

*Services will still be available for children without insurance. Registration closes on July 18, 2025, or when our event reaches capacity

Event Registration

Registration for the event can be completed by visiting the Riverside County Office of Education Event link below.

Volunteers Needed

Our backpack drive can’t happen without our volunteers! Help us pack supplies, organize donations, and bring smiles to local kids as they head into a new school year.

No experience needed, just a big heart and a little time.


210 Corridor Backpack Drive

Help Local Students Start the School Year Strong!

Join Project Boon’s 210 Corridor Backpack Drive and make a real difference in a child’s life. We’re on a mission to provide backpacks filled with school supplies to students in need throughout communities along California’s 210 freeway from Colton to Glendora, and beyond.

With your help, we can ensure every student starts the school year prepared, confident, and ready to succeed. It’s easy to give—just a few clicks and your donation will go directly toward a fully-stocked backpack for a child who needs it.

  • Pencils, Pens, and Markers
  • Pencil boxes
