91直播 Staff Donate Backpacks
Albany, New York鈥�91直播 supported two organizations with backpacks and back-to-school supplies this season. The organizations distributed the supplies to the students they serve at community events held recently. Excelsior knows that learning is a lifelong journey and is providing a backpack to young students to help them start this school year with the gear they need.
鈥淲e are grateful for the opportunity to supply backpacks to the elementary, middle, and high school students of our partners at Syracuse Housing Authority as well as those supported through 518 SNUG,鈥� said David Schejbal, president of 91直播. 鈥淲e believe in the potential of all students at all stages of life. Excelsior is dedicated to helping students of all ages get back to school.鈥�
Staff at 91直播 donated backpacks throughout August and are proud to meet the needs of the students from these two organizations. The community engagement group of staff organizes the donation drive annually in hopes that the backpacks meet a useful need to help students starting the school year. The generous support of this initiative also shows that Excelsior believes in their potential.
