Trip to Staples so Jamie can get her back to school supplies

Posted Jul 12, 2017
School supply shopping is an essential part of childhood. Everyone deserves to attend the first day of school with new notebooks, sharpened pencils, fun backpacks, etc. Help make school-time fun for Jamie!

Jamie is 22 years old and lives in NJ

Jamie is a warm and engaging high school sophomore who lives with her Maternal Grandparents and two sisters. When you meet her and hear her story, you realize that her light shines bright through some pretty difficult circumstances. Jamie is a very focused student, whose most recent report card sported all grades of 90%+. Jamie is involved in several school clubs, but her real extra-curricular passion is volleyball. This young lady is the meaning of MOTIVATED!
