August is National Back to School Month, and we want to give our blood donors the opportunity to donate school supplies to children in need. Join Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center and BEAR Houston this summer for a heartfelt community giveback! Blood donors have the power to ensure at-risk and CPS-involved children start their school year on a high note. Drop off new school supplies at a BEAR Back to School donation bin at any of our Neighborhood Donor Centers from August 1-15, 2024.   

There are numerous ways to amplify your impact! You can shop directly from BEAR Houston’s Amazon List at BEAR Back to School: Supplies List, choose to donate a monetary gift, or donate your Donor Rewards points. Together, let’s make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in our community.

  
BEAR is the only 501(c)(3) organization working with Harris County CPS and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services that offers unique programs – that provide not only the basic needs of children recently uprooted, but also supportive services that provide comfort, dignity, and celebration of successes that propel the child toward a successful future – for abused and neglected children.  
  
Each fall, BEAR’s Back to School program, which serves over 11,990 children annually, helps ensure that children who might otherwise go without have the confidence, normalcy, and school supplies they need to start the school year off right.
  
Resources like backpacks and school supplies make a HUGE difference in the life of a child’s academic success. To assist BEAR in providing as many Back to School essentials to these children, we invite you to participate in several ways.
