backpacks for kids at target image
lil bubble
I'm planning on a huge project for foster children where I'm making backpacks for all the foster children in the community that includes a journal, pen, pair of clothes, and health supplies. (all of which put into a backpack to carry around for when they go from foster home to foster home.) I need a way to make money for the backpacks. Also, I need a list of big sponsors that could donate some things for the kids. :] first one to answer gets the points!!! :]
Answer
Do you have permission from the foster care agency to do this project? Will all donations go directly to that agency, rather than through you? Do you have a web site that shows the foster care agency has approved your project and is ready to accept financial donations on their behalf? Unless you have all this, you won't get any sponsors for your project, as sponsors donate to nonprofit organizations and community programs at government agencies, not to individuals.
Once you have all of the above, target sponsors locally, from your own city and county (largest employers, largest manufacturers, etc.). All solicitation letters should be approved and sent through the foster care agency.

Answer
Hi! I'm going to be a sophmore, so I hope this helps! You can just take bit and pieces of what I suggest, you don't have to implicate everything of course, I just hope this can help in some way!
Supplies:
Backpack
You want something durable, I think that you should invest in a backpack that you will use for two, three, or all four years. Jansport, Vera Bradley, and North Face are GREAT brands. J And I really like using brands like that rather than the super cute ones from stores like Brandy Mellville and Steve Madden, just because they're expensive, but not really worth it. I don't think that they are big or durable, although very cute.
Lunchbag and Pencil Case:
Tin lunch boxes always break and don't last too long. I like target lunch bags, I have a cow one and it's so cute! Some upperclassman had it too! We've gotten to the age where we can have the cute adorable lunch boxes. For pencil cases I love using Forever 21 cosmetic cases! I think that this one is super cute and big! http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product⦠I also really like five star ones, because they have multiple pockets.
Writing Implements (And other stuff in a pencil case):
If you can go to a costco there's a really good pack that has everything you need. But otherwise, my favorite thing to do is buy the 26 pack of BIC pencils, a few packs of lead 0.7 lead, and Papermate Clear Point pencils. I love the BIC Brite liner hilighters, they last the longest, but buy two packs, just in case! For pens I like the erasemate pens, but only for blue and black. I love writing my notes for math in them! Also for colored pens I like Papermate Inkjoy. Mini staplers are a great thing to have because I feel like teachers never have them! Also your teachers may want colored pencils, I took biology last year so I had used them a lot. Instead of buying new ones, just look around your house and get some colors together. You can get cheap sharpeners for a buck at target! Always be sure to have an extra eraser, like a pink pearl.
Binders:
I have 4 core classes, and then I have two classes that switch for the semesters. They're basically electives, besides the fact that I can't chose them. So I double all of my binders. So I have two core binders, since I keep two classes per a binder. Then I have a binder for my 'electives'. All of my binders are re-used 1 inch binder. I put in some collages from Seventeen magazine. I bought a pack of those dividers that have pockets in them, and I put one per a subject in the binders. Then I have three normal dividers behind each one. The bigger divider is for tests/quizzes. The three dividers are for notes, homework, and classwork/handouts. For my 'elective' binder, I just have one big divider, and three normal dividers. I have two binders at home that have two dividers each in them, each representing a class. Every month or so, or after ever quarter I clean out my binders and put the papers into the at home binders. I do this so that when it comes time to study for finals, I have everything that I could possibly need. At the end of each semester I throw out every paper, unless my second semester final is cumulative.
I have 3 Five Star folders. They are plastic with three prongs, which is where I keep loose-leaf paper. Each side of the folder represents a class. Here I keep my homework or recent papers that my teachers have given me. I realized that notebooks are only necessary for classes such as History, Science, and Math. However I don't have too many history lectures at my high school. So I have 4 Five Star notebooks. One is left over from last year, and the others new. I like Five Star products because of how durable they are. I really NEED durable supplies.
Don't forget locker shelves! I think two is a good amount. To keep everything separate from each other.
