Employees of the $1 billion Educational Systems Federal Credit Union in Greenbelt, Md., and Prince George’s County Public Schools load more than 130 boxes filled with 2,000 backpacks into a school bus at the credit union’s Bowie branch parking lot. The donated backpacks will be given to middle school students during the Prince George’s County Public Schools’ Back-to-School Block Party on Aug. 17 at the Prince George’s Sports and Learning Center. The backpacks were donated through the Support Education Foundation, which was established by Educational Systems FCU. In total, 6,500 backpacks will be provided to middle school students across the counties served by the credit union. Each backpack includes a 100-sheet pack of college ruled paper, a pack of six ballpoint pens, a highlighter and a 12-inch ruler.
