Support Our 10,000 Bookbag Giveaway on 8.16.09

Every year, thousands of children start a new school year without the proper tools for success. At-Risk children of all races and ethnic backgrounds face numerous challenges that are often ignored and misunderstood.

On Sunday, August 16, 2009, The Urban Change Movement gives back again to the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area in an extraordinary way by sponsoring "The 10,000 Back-To-School Bookbag Giveaway." 

This major contribution to the community is a part of "Life Day," a community outreach event sponsored by Urban Change and The Life Center and will include activities for the entire family.  Last year's event was a tremendous success that featured several celebrity guest appearances and widespread political and community support.

You can support Urban Change & The Life Center's efforts by sponsoring book bags.  Each book bag is only $15 and will include school supplies and age appropriate reading material.  Sponsor a student today!  We are also seeking volunteers to help pack and distribute book bags for Life Day 2: 10,000 on 8.16.09. We are also seeking volunteers that are willing to be a part of our community street team that will make the community aware that these bags will be available.

Together we can make a difference!
