Back-to-School Brigade

The Project New Hope Inc. Back-to-School Brigade is an annual campaign by Project New Hope Inc. in partnership with Operation Homefront and Dollar Tree Stores that collects and distributes school supplies to eligible dependents of service members. Through this assistance program, military children receive free Backpack filled with back-to-school supplies, to help them start the new school year on the right foot.

This program is a crucial resource for Military and Veteran families who may face financial hardship or other challenges as they navigate the back-to-school season. Our program also includes a range of other school supplies, such as pencils, paper, and other essential items, to help children succeed in the classroom.

Project New Hope Inc. is honored to be able to provide back to school supplies free to our Military and Veteran families. Supplies are limited and are on a first-come, first-served registration process for Kindergarten through 12th grade for the 2023/2024 school year.
