VOA's Operation Backpack drive aims to help 10,000 children in New York area shelters, so they can begin the school year with confidence, feeling more like their housed classmates. Children and parents who benefitted from the program will be on hand and Department of Homeless Services Commissioner Seth Diamond was also present.

Volunteers of America launches Operation Backpack with its Public Drive running July 26 - August 8 (check OperationBackpackNYC.org for the entire list of official drop locations accepting donations of new backpacks).

Broadway's Patrick Page, soon to be in seen in A Man For All Seasons and his wife, star of TLC's Trading Spaces, Paige Davis came out to support Operation Backpack. It is Volunteers of America's annual back-to-school drive that asks the general public to bring new backpacks to designated Drop Locations throughout the city. Over 70 New York businesses participate by engaging employees in backpack and school supply drives. The result is thousands of new backpacks, which volunteers fill with trade-specific supplies during Sort Week and distribute to kids in time for the start of the school year.
