Back to School Bash
May 1 - July 29, 2023
Join Mile High United Way in providing backpacks and school supplies to hundreds of students across Metro Denver at our annual Back to School Bash. The average back to school supply list can cost over $100 which isn’t feasible for many families. Join us in helping students, parents and teachers start the school year off right.
Get involved by running a supply drive with your friends and coworkers, donating, or volunteering to support the event.
