Cradles to Crayons Backpack Challenge 2025 Results

20th Annual Backpack Challenge 2025 Results

$66,000+ Donated | 3,502 Filled Backpacks to Get Children Ready for Learning for the 2025 – 2026 School Year

💜 THANK YOU 🎒 – We Did It Again!

A heartfelt thank you to BHHS Fox & Roach and The Trident Group sales professionals, employees, executives, families, friends, clients and sponsors who came up big for this year’s backpack challenge by donating $66,682 to Cradles to Crayons, providing over 3,500 filled backpacks to children throughout Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania!

In addition to the monetary donations, we had over 100 sales professionals and employees help Cradles to Crayons fill over 75,000 backpacks at their Giving Factory and the Annual Delaware and Philadelphia Backpack-A-Thons! We continue our dedication to helping children return to school with the confidence they need to succeed and achieve. Thank you to all our donors.

Since 2006, the BHHS Fox & Roach/Trident family has donated over 68,940 backpacks & supplies, totaling more than $982,432.

“Many children in our community face the challenge of going to school without the supplies they need. A simple backpack filled with essentials can make a world of difference—giving students the confidence to learn, the tools to succeed, and the chance to focus on their education rather than what they are missing. Your support goes beyond individual families. Community partners and local organizations often reach out to us for backpacks to share with the children they serve, ensuring that help reaches even more students in need. Together, we are not only easing the burden for parents but also building brighter futures for kids across our community. We are beyond grateful for your donation.”

 

– Lehigh Valley Area Director, Volunteers of America

 

“CASA is truly grateful for Berkshire Hathaway Fox & Roach’s continued support. The bookbags and supplies will allow many children in our area to start their school year on the right foot. Thank you!

 

– Development Manager, CASA for Children, Atlantic, Cape May, and Camden Counties
