Fill the Pack
Is an annual campaign aimed at supplying essential and vital items to support individuals experiencing homelessness.
This holiday season, help us reach our goal of collecting 300+ backpacks filled with essential items for individuals experiencing homelessness. We’re gathering new backpacks, basic necessities, and fun holiday gifts to support our clients throughout the year.
Let your holiday giving carry deeper meaning by providing comfort, care, and hope to our community members who need it most. For many, this may be the only gift they receive this winter. Thank you for helping us make a difference.

About Fill the Pack:
“Fill the Pack” began more than a decade ago, founded by Martha Crook, a former board member of Volunteers of America, Utah. What started as a simple idea to provide backpacks filled with essentials and holiday cheer to homeless youth has grown to serve clients at our Center for Women and Children and Men’s Detox Center. Today, Fill the Pack continues to spread warmth and generosity across all our programs.
