About GBP
Here at Giving Backpack we see the value in every person. We want to be a catalyst for positive change in the homeless community, and since our beginnings in 2013, we’ve been driven by giving back to those in need. We initially founded our Christian Organization upon: Unity, Joy and Peace! Dealing with the challenges of today requires problem-solvers, who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks. We took that risk by giving what we had from our hearts and salaries to put it into making bags.
Our Goal is to help those in need with basic toiletries and non perishable items in a convenient backpack, to equip and prepare them with hopes for a better tomorrow. We believe in the JOY of helping people where they are no matter there situation or circumstance.We strive to be so much more then just bags of toiletries.
The Giving Backpack is looking to integrate the ability to provide PEACE, showers, mentors, food pantries, medical support and so much more. We as people have the ability in ourselves to be able to help others. We just want to bring that goodness within us out, as a UNIT of people, lets Help changes lives! Together we can make a difference in the world today.
This is a Non-Profit Organization. ALL of the proceeds help support our mission.
KJV 2 Corinthians 9:7
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
