Description:

Busboys and Poets is proud to host Childhelp, one of the nation’s oldest and largest nonprofits dedicated to supporting victims of child abuse and neglect. As part of their Childhelp Awareness Backpack Drive, they’ll be collecting new backpacks, school supplies, clothing, toys, and other child-friendly items to support children in foster care.

Stop by to drop off donations or purchase a backpack on-site to add to the drive! You'll find a friendly Childhelp ambassador at their table just outside the restaurant—ready to share more about their life-changing work.

Let’s come together as a community to support this powerful cause and help ensure that every child has the tools they need to thrive.

Learn more about Childhelp at www.childhelp.org
Please note: Busboys and Poets is not responsible for the drive or donated items.
