Backpack Drive

Updated: Apr 21

CMREN Student Workers heard the need from both Angels of Action and Jonah Foundation for backpacks, used to serve those with whom they work.



CMREN Student Workers heard the need from both Angels of Action and Jonah Foundation for backpacks, used to serve those with whom they work.  February 15 to March 2, 2023, students had collection boxes placed in various locations through Mecosta County and on the Ferris State University campus for donations of new and/or gently used backpacks. 


This initiative has been supported by others, such as the donation of notepads for Jonah Foundation by the Ferris Print Service Center and the donation of pens, wristbands, and stress balls by Families Against Narcotics.
