ABBA Leadership Center will be hosting a Annual Back-to-School backpack School/Supply Drive for children of low-income struggling families. We give out over a thousand free backpacks with school supplies to children in and around the Village of Hempstead. Our goal is to support the education of our children, realizing that is the only sure fire way of breaking the multi-generational cycle of poverty in low income communities. In addition, we will be partnering with a host of community service providers to provide information on healthcare services, Mentoring programs, daycare service, gangs violence awareness/prevention and alternative educational services.
“According to the Department of Criminal Justice Bureau of Statistics, one in three children from poor communities will end up in the Criminal Justice System in their life time. Additionally, up to 85% of these children will drop out of school before they graduate high school. It is common knowledge that in poor low income communities educational resources are lacking and is directly co-related to poor academic achievement and helps to foster a culture of disenchantment with the educational system. Our Back-to-School drive strives to reverse this trend by directly focusing on kids in low income communities. This year's event will be adding a barbecue cookout, live entertainment and special remarks by distinguish community leaders.” As a member of the faith-based community, we believe that it is imperative that we reach out and engage hurting communities. The bible says “inasmuch as you do it unto one of the least of these my brothers, you do it unto me (Matthew 25:35-40). Please prayerfully consider help us to help the least able to help themselves, our children, they are our future. Our goal for 2012 is to provide backpacks filled with school supplies for up to 1000 low-income troubled Youth from the Village of Hempstead. The total projected cost for 1000 backpacks with necessary school supplies is $50,000 ($50 X 1000=$50,000). This does not include promotional banners, flyers, mailing and administrative staff. It’s our motto that “No one person can do everything, but everybody can to something.” Will you partner with us? Here is how you can help:
