Back-to-School Backpack Campaign 2024: Supporting Families, Empowering Students

Empowering the Youth, One Backpack at a Time

As the new school year approaches, many families face significant financial pressures. To help ease this burden, Patrice Bailey International (PBI), with the support of our amazing partners, is launching our annual Back-to-School Backpack Campaign 2024.

Join us in making a difference!

Our goal is to provide 100 fully stocked backpacks to children of school age, from economically disadvantaged families, and start the school year with the tools they need to succeed.

We are fortunate to have the support of key partners in this initiative, including Dr Angela Herbert MBE, LLB Hons, Chair of the Brent Police Independent Advisory Group and Director of IOTC Solutions, and Yvonne Wilson, Founder of Equi-vision. Dr Angela Herbert has expressed her commitment to this campaign, saying:

“As Chair of the Brent Police Independent Advisory Group, I am promoting this worthwhile initiative for Brent pupils. As the Director of IOTC-Solutions Ltd., I have sponsored 10 backpacks and their contents to provide children with the resources they need and alleviate at least one pressure from parents as they prepare for the new term.”
— Dr Angela Herbert MBE, LLB Hons

The Real Cost: Key Statistics

- Over 1 in 10 will skip meals to pay for school uniform

- 92% fear their child will be bullied because of the low quality of their uniform

- 9 in 10 parents worry about the cost of new school uniform
