GTAR's Backpacks for Kids

Share

Our 2026 goal is to provide backpacks filled with clothing to 500 children in need. We'll accomplish this by raising $50,000 before June 30th!

Backpacks for Kids has raised over $450,000 to purchase and fill backpacks for children with essentials such as pants, shirts, socks and shoes for the first day of school. Backpacks for Kids began in 2006, as a community outreach program for the Greater Tulsa Association of REALTORS. Children are chosen by Family & Children's Services of Tulsa. Each FULL backpack costs approximately $75.00. In ear
