Help us support students in Pasco County, New Port Richey, and beyond β August 1, 2026 at Gulf View Square Mall.
Volunteers are the engine of our event. From setting up tables to guiding families through stations, every role directly contributes to hundreds of students launching their school year with confidence. Most shifts run 2β4 hours and we supply snacks, a volunteer t-shirt, and our deepest gratitude.
