Share

The 2025-26 school year is almost upon us, and that means it’s time to fill some backpacks with the United Way!

We are looking for 15 volunteers to help us with the NRLC’s day to fill backpacks. It would be great to have a variety of locals come out and support the kids who need our help.

1200 backpacks await us, and if you would like to help out, please fill out the attached form. The first 15 volunteers will be selected, and anyone signing up after will be an alternate in case we need extra help.

Thank you, and hope to see you there!

To sign up please fill out this form.

Date: Tuesday, August 26th

Time: 1:30-5:00 pm

Location: Beatties Warehouse

399 Vansickle Road, St Catharines

Spots are first come, first served.
