Back to School Program


Shh! Don’t tell the kids, but our Back to School program is underway! The Breathing Room Back to School Program provides a backpack or box filled with items and supplies requested by the classroom teacher, with the exception of expensive calculators and electronics. Our backpacks and boxes are personalized to meet each child’s personal preferences. This year, BRF volunteers will deliver backpacks to over 400 children in time for the start of school!

NOTE: If you have collected donations, please deliver them by 5 p.m. today (Thurs Aug 22) to the collection drop-off site. If you are unsure of the collection site, please email Eileen at eileen@breathingroomfoundation.org or call 215-277-1006.

If you would like to still help with a donation, the best thing we can use right now is a gift card to Target, Wal-Mart, or Amazon so we can purchase items we know are missing. Or, send items directly to us via our Amazon wish list by following this link: http://a.co/984xGyI (redirects to Amazon website)
