Every year, WeLoveU members in the United States help students with their back-to-school preparations by donating backpacks and school supplies through the “Packs on Backs“ project. This aims to ensure equal educational opportunities, reduce the learning gap among students, and ultimately make children’s futures brighter and more hopeful.
From August 8 to September 9, 2024, backpacks and school supply sets were distributed to approximately 1,700 students across six schools in Florida, Virginia, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.
“Educational resources are essential for student success. Today’s WeLoveU educational support event is a prime example of how community involvement can drive meaningful change.”
Dr. Raymond Haynes, Superintendent of Hampton City Schools
“This is my first meeting with the Intl. WeLoveU Foundation, and I’m truly impressed. It’s crucial for organizations to directly address and support the needs of the community in this way. I sincerely thank you for providing school supplies to help children start the new school year on the right foot. I believe events like this will serve as a powerful example for children, teaching them the importance of education. Our children will learn the value of both education and community.”
Gabriel Rodriguez, Assembly Member of New Jersey State
“Thanks to WeLoveU’s support, our students now have everything they need for their studies, and parents no longer have to worry about preparing their children for school. When I informed the teachers that WeLoveU would be providing school supplies, everyone was overjoyed. Such initiatives strengthen community bonds and help students feel supported like family, boosting their confidence and motivating them to be more dedicated to their studies. We are truly pleased to provide our students with the opportunity to succeed.”
