Prichard Housing Authority CEO Kimberly Levingston kicks off the Backpack & Brew Drive early with school supply donations at Great Day Latte.

The two-day drive focuses on getting local students fully equipped for the upcoming school year by rallying neighbors to donate classroom essentials, including clear backpacks, notebooks, hygiene products, pencils, colored pencils, and crayons.

As a thank-you for supporting the community, every donor will receive 10% off a drink.

Grab your favorite latte, share what you can, and make sure local kids walk into their classrooms equipped and ready to learn.
