Each year, Carolina Family Services provides backpacks filled with supplies for children in need across the Upstate. Many Upstate families are struggling to make ends meet due to the pandemic and other financial barriers, so contributing to this year's effort has never been more important. To ensure safety efforts, we will disinfect and quarantine all donated supplies at least 7 days prior to the event.
