A New Backpack for Kaleb to start school

Posted Aug 29, 2019
Kaleb asked his mother for a specific backpack that he wants for when he starts school next week. He will be starting the 1st grade and is excited to see his friends again. Kaleb's mother cannot afford to get him a backpack at this time. We would love to surprise Kaleb with a trip to the store to pick out a new backpack during a visit with his mom!

Kaleb is 11 years old and lives in NJ

Kaleb is kind, thoughtful boy who loves being a big brother to his brother Khadden. He enjoys playing outside, and watching movies. Kaleb was acknowledged at school for showing kindness to other students, completing his work on time and following rules. Kaleb enjoys going to school and playing outside with his brother and riding his scooter.

"Kaleb's mother was given the Target gift card to do some surprise back to school shopping with her son. Kaleb was super excited that he got to pick out a first day of school outfit as well as some school supplies. Their mother was incredibly thankful for the assistance with getting him ready for the new school year. Thank you!! "
