The United Way’s annual Backpack Program is fast approaching!  We are working with our local community to make sure that kiddos (grades K-12) are prepared to return to school with the supplies that they need.  This program allows children the opportunity to choose their own backpack and fill it with the essential items they will need for the classroom.

Please click HERE for more information on qualification and how families can register. Families must register with the Barry County United Way – we schedule appointment times for each family to ensure social distancing and privacy.

The COVID vaccine will also be available on-site to anyone 12 years of age and older.

Interested in donating? There are many collection sites around Barry County. View those by clicking HERE.

Thank you again for your help in getting the youth of Barry County ready for another amazing school year!

If you have any questions, please let us know.
