Over 20 Ropes & Gray volunteers helped to fill over 35,000 backpacks for underprivileged Chicagoland children at Cradles to Crayons’ annual Backpack-A-Thon. In the coming weeks the organization will share a total of 105,000 backpacks filled with clothing, school supplies, and everyday essentials with students across Chicago.
The Backpack-A-Thon is part of the national organization’s Ready for School initiative to help children prepare for the school year. Cradles to Crayons operates Giving Factories in Chicago, Boston, and Philadelphia.
