What You'll Be Doing
There are two great ways to help with the Spur Student Success Drive: sponsor a student by making a tax-deductible gift so Spur can buy everything students need wholesale, or volunteer to pack a backpack in the Spur office, filling each one with the exact supplies a student needs for their grade.

Why It Matters
Starting school with the right supplies means students can focus on learning instead of worrying about what they're missing. For families already struggling to make ends meet, lifting the burden of back-to-school costs means they don't have to choose between school supplies and other necessities like rent, food, or medicine.
