On Saturday, July 27, Perkins and Will, a global collective of architect designers and changemakers, hosted their 2024 Backpack Bash at Fickett Elementary School, benefiting Atlanta Public Schools.
Thanks to the generous donation from Perkins and Will, students and teachers were able to secure everything on their supply lists, ensuring they were well-prepared for the entire year.
The event provided teachers and 1,200 students from Fickett Elementary School, Kimberly Elementary School and Continental Colony Elementary School with backpacks, resources and school supplies.
Founded by Lawrence B. Perkins and Philip Will, Jr., Perkins and Will operates with a guiding philosophy that every design decision should honor the broader goals of society, keeping people at the heart of their work.
This commitment to community and their passion for creating an equitable world, through architecture and philanthropy, contributed to the success of the 2024 Backpack Bash.
