Source4Teachers, a national educational staffing solutions firm based in Cherry Hill, N.J., partnered with Our Lady of Lourdes Medical Center to fulfill the needs of local children with a donation of 125 backpacks filled with school supplies.

“Source4Teachers has a vested interest in the quality of students’ educational experiences. When we learned of Lourdes’ goal of 100 backpacks for the drive, we decided to up-the-ante to 125 to ensure more students in need are equipped with the tools necessary to achieve academic success,” said Kevin Bush, President, Source4Teachers.

The backpacks were filled with items requested by the hospital for the drive, including pencils, sharpeners, erasers, pens, rulers, markers, glue sticks, notebooks and tissues. All donations will be distributed to local children prior to the start of the school year.
