While most kids across the country were enjoying their last few weeks of summer, Mari Copeny aka Little Miss Flint was hard at work raising money with Pack Your Back to help provide backpacks, and school supplies students across Detroit and Flint, Michigan.
We’re happy to inform you that Mari did an excellent job in providing over 1,000 local students with back packs filled with supplies, raising around $10,000. This is a giant leap from last years #PackYourBackChallenge, where Mari was able to fill 100 student’s back packs, filling ten times the amount in 2017!
#PackYourBackChallenge was a success. Every single child that came got a backpack and supplies. Over 1,000 students helped today. pic.twitter.com/BcV65hmrMM
