The 2nd annual Mahogany, Inc. Back to School Drive ended last week and the B&O was so proud to participate in helping get Baltimore students the supplies they need to succeed!
We’re not just known for general contracting, commissioning, and architectural millwork. We’re also known for our philanthropy. We care about the Baltimore community and believe in giving back. Some of our community efforts in the past included working with the YMCA, the B&O Railroad Museum, the Greater Baltimore Urban League, and more. This year we decided to host our 2nd annual Back to School Drive. We’re a locally-owned business that believes that children are the future, and education is a stepping stone towards success. Today we’re going to talk more about our 2nd annual Back to School Drive. Keep reading!
We Believe that Children are the Future
This year we had hopes of giving out 100 backpacks filled with school supplies and thanks to all of you, our amazing donors, we surpassed that goal! We ended up providing 175 students with backpacks, as well as 50 pencil cases filled with supplies to additional students who were unable to receive book bags. We filled each bag with the following items: 3 folders, four notebooks, pencils, and pens, a pair of scissors, glue, a ruler, erasers, pencil case, and crayons. We were also gifted full bottles of unisex leave-in conditioner by Honey Baby to put in each bag. We were also given two free admission tickets to the B&O Railroad Museum. Each backpack also received a list of all companies who helped sponsor this event.
Thank you to Our Sponsors, Donors, and Volunteers
None of this would have been possible without the many generous volunteers who donated their time. Thank you to the sponsors who sent in monetary donations and supplies and restaurants and caterers who provided food for the event. Most volunteers assisted with handing out the various food options which included: 20 boxes of pizza, over 180 hot dogs, Peruvian chicken, greens, mashed potatoes, chicken and shrimp penne pasta, vegetarian penne pasta, meatballs, macaroni and cheese, BBQ chicken sliders, Caesar salad and breadsticks, deli sandwiches, buffalo chicken bites and cookies.
