My sister and I held bake sales together each year to raise money for Supplies for Success. Every August, we helped fill nearly 2,000 backpacks with notebooks, pens, pencils…all the tools a kid needs to succeed in school. I am lucky that I have always had everything I need to kick off the school year with confidence. I want to make sure that thousands of kids in Bergen County will not force their parents to choose between buying school supplies and paying for food or electric bills.

A few years ago, I started selling jewelry because I love a good accessory! I have a flare for fashion (or so I’ve been told) and I want to use my passion for good. That’s why I’m donating half the profits from every sale to Supplies for Success. My target is to raise enough money by June to buy and fill 200 backpacks. That’s a little over $5,000. Please help me achieve this goal.
