Why do we need $5000
We are trying to raise $5000 so we can purchase 1,000 bookbags for our 6th Annual Bright Minds with Bright Futures Bookbag Giveaway.

E.L.O.G.'s annual Bright Minds with Bright Futures Bookbag Giveaway was created to assist disadvantaged families in the area by providing basic essentials (bookbags & school supplies) for kids heading back to school in September. Additionally, this event allows E.L.O.G. the opportunity to mentor to kids and promote the importance of obtaining an education, while also working to close the achievement gap that we noticed in our communities. E.L.O.G believes children in the inner city do not have all the same resources as someone who lives in a suburb might have and this advantage is an achievement gap.

Since we started back in 2010 we have blessed close to 1,500 kids with bookbags.  Below is our annual totals from the previous five years.  

Bright Minds with Bright Futures since 2010
2014 - 780 bookbags
2013 - 400 bookbags
2012 - 188 bookbags
2011 - 80 bookbags
2010 - 49 bookbags

Featured in this picture is some of the young kids waiting to get their new bookbags.

Don't watch us change the world, help us to change the world.
