Irvine, CA, July 22, 2023 --(PR.com)-- In the true spirit of “paying it forward,” Antis Roofing & Waterproofing will donate its David Chow Humanitarian Award cash prize to a beloved annual tradition at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Orange Coast (the Club).
The $2,500 check, awarded to Antis in 2022, will be presented to the Club during their Back-to-School Backpack Drive. This year, the Drive takes place on Wednesday, August 3.
“Our campaign provides about a thousand new backpacks and supplies to kids who need them most and this contribution helps make it happen,” says David Blair, Director of Philanthropy and Corporate Partnerships of the Club. “We are so grateful for Charles Antis’ constant dedication to our cause and this honor is just another tribute to that dedication.”
During the event, California Love Drop will serve up its locally famous lunch from Wahoo’s Fish Tacos along with Yogurtland treats and beverages. Wahoo’s Fish Tacos co-founder Wing Lam will be cooking onsite and rising star Madison Taylor Baez is expected to make an appearance. Baez is a 12-year-old singer and actress who was a “Golden Buzzer” winner on America’s Got Talent last year.
About 250 kids are expected to attend and will receive backpacks filled with critical school supplies. Among the supplies will be new books donated by Lisa Wiehebrink, author of two children’s books and founder of Tails that Teach.
“The youth who receive the Backpack Drive supplies have been identified as kids who would likely rely on hand-me-down supplies or leftover supplies from the prior school year,” Blair notes. “This (event) offers our kids not just the tools they need in school, but also the confidence that comes with great quality and just a bit of compassion.”
The Back-to-School Backpack Drive event will take place at the Boys & Girls Club of Santa Ana, 950 W. Highland, in Santa Ana. Lunch and check presentation will take place from 11:00 a.m. until 1:30 p.m.
