TUSTIN, Calif.–SchoolsFirst FCU’s membership development and advocacy teams delivered 2,500 backpacks filled with school supplies – including pencils, erasers, notebooks and other necessities – to 11 county offices of education, or a designated school district, throughout California.
SchoolsFirst FCU delivered backpacks to the following counties: Los Angeles, Orange, Placer, Riverside, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Diego, Sutter, Ventura, Yolo, and Yuba. The individual county offices of education will distribute the backpacks to students in need to help them prepare to excel in the new school year.
