Knowledge is the Greatest Gift

BEARPAW and Ticket to Dream are helping local foster youth get ready for back to school season by supplying them with the tools they need to succeed in the classroom. Your donation will provide Sacramento area foster kids with backpacks and school supplies so they can hold their heads high and start the school year right! You can personalize this gift by adding a special note of encouragement for a child, just leave your message in the comment field.

These backpacks will be distributed at Ticket to Dream and BEARPAW's Back to School Bash in July, where over 100 elementary aged foster kids and their families join us for a day of play as they get ready for the school year ahead. Foster kids are provided BEARPAW boots, socks, backpacks and an abundance of school supplies, while enjoying an afternoon of games, prizes, treats and laughter. Together we can help foster youth get excited for the new school year and show them the community cares.


About Ticket to Dream:

At the Ticket to Dream Foundation we are dedicated to creating hope and opportunity for foster children across the nation, so they can just be kids. To us, hope starts with having shoes and clothing that fit, lifting their self-esteem. School supplies and access to computers so they have the tools they need to succeed in school. Getting to experience the joy of a gift under the tree, a trip to the zoo or joining a sports team. It's ensuring they have vital services and support that allow them to heal and grow to reach their full potential.

We want foster children across the country to thrive, but we can't do it alone – we need your help.
