Shoreline Community invited to Backpack Drive Open House to support local students August 15, 2025

Shoreline will host a Backpack Drive Open House on August 15 from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm at Ballinger BECU, aiming to support local students through backpack donations. Community members are encouraged to contribute new backpacks, especially large options for middle and high school students, as well as those with water bottle pockets. The event will feature snacks and opportunities to connect with the Shoreline Public Schools Foundation, which works to improve educational equity. Donations collected will directly benefit students in the Shoreline School District, addressing critical needs for back-to-school supplies. This initiative is made possible through partnerships with BECU, Windermere Real Estate/Shoreline, and Destination Shoreline.

The Shoreline Public Schools Foundation plays a vital role in supporting local education and ensuring that all students have access to necessary resources. Interested individuals can find more information on the event's website. The drive highlights the community's commitment to enhancing educational opportunities for all students.
