The America First Charitable Foundations' Backpack Bonanza supports thousands of children who attend Title I schools in Arizona, California, Idaho, New Mexico, Nevada, and Utah. This program is powered by the dedication of our amazing members and employees, and it makes a significant impact by providing essential backpacks and other school supplies to children who need it the most. We aim to support the kids in our communities in their educational journey by ensuring they have the necessary tools to succeed in the classroom.

In 2025, we partnered with Interform and donated 2,275 backpacks filled with supplies to 34 schools and organizations in all six states. We hope to exceed that amount in 2026.
