Backpack Drive

Our annual Backpack Drive is back!

Every child deserves to start the school year feeling prepared, confident, and cared for. As a church family, we have the opportunity to make that happen. Through our Backpack Drive, we'll be collecting backpacks, school supplies, and other essentials leading up to Kickstart, a special event where students can shop for and choose their own supplies. It's more than providing school items. It's helping kids begin the year with dignity, excitement, and the support of a community that believes in them.

GET INVOLVED

Sponsor a Child

For just $40, you can sponsor a child and they will receive a backpack filled with school supplies. Our team will do the shopping for you! Click the link below to give today, or visit the lobby at your Central location to participate.

Volunteer at Kickstart

Help students start the school year with confidence! Kickstart is almost here, and we're looking for volunteers to help create an unforgettable experience for local families. From greeting guests and distributing supplies to assisting students as they shop, every role helps show our community the love of Jesus in a practical way.

In Need?

Kickstart is a free back-to-school event designed to help families start the school year strong! Families with school-age children are invited to enjoy free backpacks, school supplies, haircuts, and more resources while supplies last. We can’t wait to serve your family and help students head back to school with the tools they need for a great year ahead!
