Backpacks of Hope for Foster Children

Supporting Foster Youth in West Volusia County

Join Community Church of DeBary in making a meaningful difference in the lives of foster children through our Backpacks of Hope initiative. This special outreach provides personalized backpacks filled with essential school supplies to help children start the school year with confidence and dignity.

Through our partnership with Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health (Devereux Behavioral Center), we receive the names and specific needs of foster children in West Volusia County. Each backpack is thoughtfully prepared according to the child’s school grade and individual requirements, ensuring they are equipped for success from day one.

Your financial contribution allows us to purchase high-quality supplies tailored to each student—transforming generosity into opportunity. More than just notebooks and pencils, these backpacks deliver encouragement, stability, and hope to children navigating challenging circumstances.

How You Can Help

  • Give Financially: Donations fund grade-specific backpacks and supplies.
  • Support Foster Youth: Help students feel prepared, confident, and cared for.
  • Strengthen Our Community: Partner with us to make a lasting impact in West Volusia County.

Together, we can show these children they are seen, valued, and supported.

“Each backpack is more than school supplies—it’s a reminder that someone cares.”
