For the past nine years, the Children’s Services Council of Broward County has provided thousands of at-risk students with school supplies during its Back to School Extravaganza event, which takes place right before the start of the new school year. In 2019, the organization partnered with the YMCA of South Florida to provide some 8,000 students with backpacks, school supplies, uniforms, shoes, and other materials they need to succeed.
