Today was incredibly special.
Thanks to the generosity of our community, we were able to provide 30 backpacks filled with school supplies to the children who had signed up before today's event. Seeing those smiles reminded me why Busy Bees existsβto be more than a play space, but a place that gives back whenever we can.
Throughout today's event, 61 additional children walked through our doors whose families shared that they are also in need of backpacks and school supplies. My heart broke knowing we couldn't help every family today.
We've been open for less than a month, and as a brand-new small business, we simply don't have the financial ability to purchase enough backpacks and supplies for everyone. But I refuse to believe these children have to go without.
If your business, church, organization, or school hosted a backpack drive and has any leftover backpacks or school supplies, we would be honored to get them into the hands of these children. We have a list of families waiting, and every donationβwhether it's one backpack, a pack of crayons, or a box of notebooksβwill make a difference.
Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, shared our posts, and believed in this mission. Because of you, 30 children are starting the school year with confidence.
Now, let's see if our community can help us reach even more. ππ
If you're able to donate or know a business that may have leftover supplies, please send me a message.
