'Backing the Need:' School Supply Drive Returns to Cobb Civic Center

In Marietta, about 70 volunteers gathered at the Cobb Civic Center for the fourth annual "Backing the Need" drive, co-hosted by KIDS CARE and the Cobb County Police Department. The event aimed to collect new backpacks and school supplies for local students in need. 

Volunteers sorted donations from Cobb police precincts and local businesses, packing 350 backpacks for distribution to seven local nonprofits. Notably, Two Men and a Truck donated a moving truck and mover to assist. 

KIDS CARE, co-founded by Amie Burke and her daughter Jaida, organizes monthly volunteer opportunities for all ages. The drive not only provided supplies but also educated young volunteers on the impact of their contributions. Since its inception, the event has distributed over 1,374 backpacks to students in Cobb schools.
