Backpack Give Back

Through June 30, 2023

Transportation and Distribution Services is excited to relaunch our annual "Backpack Give Back" outreach program, designed to encourage the pursuit of higher education by disadvantaged youth in Orange County. You may contribute by donating a new backpack to any parking information kiosk or the UCI Libraries, through June 30, 2023. You may also fill out an encouragement card and include it in the backpack to be read by the student who receives your donation.

All backpacks will be donated to the Community Action Partnership of Orange County (CAPOC). CAPOC runs two family resource centers designed to strengthen families and the communities that surround them.
