Dunwoody: Tapestri Backpack School Supplies

Rotary Club of Dunwoody makes an impact with our Tapestri backpack project!

Tapestri creates opportunities for immigrant &  refugee survivors of violence through education, community organizing, direct services, & advocacy to help them reclaim ownership over their lives. 

Thanks to the Dunwoody Country Club for hosting us as we got together to stuff dozens of backpacks full of needed school supplies.  High concentration was required as each backpack was tagged with a specific list of items needed for its new owner.  Then, off to bag and tag it for delivery handled by the dedicated Tapestri team.

As they say, many hands make light work.  We were thrilled to have a huge turnout of Dunwoody Rotarians, local Dunwoody High School football players (for the heavy lifting!), and friends.

Partner Involvement
District 6900 Grant of $2000 was received towards this project
