Backpacks for Kids!


Tulsa Realtors send over 500 kids back to school with new backpacks and school supplies this year. The largest number of backpacks donate in one year so far! The giving attitude of Tulsa area Realtors made going back-to-school for many children a fun experience with the simple gift of something new. Family and Children's Services made sure the children who received the back packs were those who needed them. The backpacks included clothing and school supplies and are intended to give at-risk children a positive start to their school year and encourage interest and participation in school rather than a poor and lacking self-image among other students who begin school fully equipped with supplies.

The event is sponsored by the Greater Tulsa Association of Realtors. Food was provided by CiCi's Pizza, Chik-Fil-A, and Blue Bell Ice Cream. the event was held at The Tulsa Home Builder's Association.
