On August 27, 2021, the Pearland branch volunteers participated in the school supplies packing event at Ed White Elementary School, along with volunteers from other places in the event hosted by Houston’s C.A.R.E. organization.
Event volunteers first took supplies out of boxes, picked pencils, scissors, crayons, markers, rulers, erasers etc. into a small bag, then filled it into a backpack with notebooks, folders, wraps, and tissue box. After 3 hours of hard work from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, the youth volunteers efficiently packed 130 backpacks for all second year students. The volunteers also helped to sort and move the backpacks to classrooms, prepared ready for next days’ distribution.
