ATSU sponsors Legacy Backpack Buddies Project
Posted: July 13, 2010
A.T. Still University continued its support of BHHS Legacy Foundation’s Legacy Backpack Buddies Project as a Classroom Sponsor in 2010, which helps support children in families living at or below the federal poverty level by providing new backpacks, clothes, shoes, and supplies for the upcoming school year. The event, which ran during the week of July 12-17, assisted an estimated 5,000 local children.
The Arizona Institutional Advancement team volunteered at the distribution event July 13 at the University Public School in downtown Phoenix. Pictured with the team are BHHS Legacy Foundation CEO Gerald Wissink, FACHE, and Mary Thomson, M.S.W., Vice President, Program Development.
