BACKPACK GIVEAWAY
The back to school season is often overwhelming for many families. Many children are at a disadvantage in our schools because they don't have the proper supplies. Always having to ask for paper or a protractor can reinforce in a child's mind that they don't have what everyone else has. This is why every August Each One Reach One has their Backpack Giveaway where every child in attendance leaves with a brand new backpack filled with school supplies.
CHRISTMAS TOY GIVEAWAY

GROCERY GIVEAWAY
Each One Reach One is a mobile hands extended organization in partnership with the Emergency Feeding Program where thousands of pounds of food is distributed each month to individuals and families that are in need of food. We’re not bound by serving only one zip code nor do we require individuals to have an ID, our only requirement is if you are hungry and need the groceries. Our goal is to make sure that no adult or child goes to bed hungry. Our biggest time of the year is during the holiday season, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, when many families are in need of food for the holidays.
