Join Our Bag Drive To Benefit Susan's Kids

Our partnership with Susan’s Kids continues to thrive, and we’re thrilled to announce that we’ll be hosting our annual Bag Drive once again this year! In honor of National Foster Care Month, we’ll be collecting backpacks, suitcases, and duffel bags throughout the entire month of May to benefit foster children.

Why A Bag Drive?

When a child enters foster care, they are given about 10 minutes to pack their belongings and are often given a black trash bag to move their items. On average, a foster child can live in 4 different homes, with 4 different families, in up to 2 different schools per year. When they no longer have to travel by trash bag, the luggage they receive is often the wrong size, scribbled on, stained, outdated, or broken. If a child has to be in foster care, we want to help them maintain an amount of dignity as they navigate a new (often temporary) normal.

Donate Today!

From May 1st through May 31st, we’ll be hosting our Bag Drive at the following dealership locations:

Please feel free to donate a new or gently used backpack, suitcase, or duffel bag (any size & color) at our participating dealerships! Trash bags are for garbage…not foster kids. Your contribution will make a significant impact on the life of a foster child, and we’re excited to have your support!
