A team of 20 FedEx volunteers banded together to fill new school bags with essential supplies, including notebooks, scissors, writing pads, erasers, sharpeners, pencils, and raincoats. These supplies were delivered to students from public schools to make sure they are equipped with the necessary tools to help them navigate the academic year. By addressing these basic educational needs, FedEx and Feed the Children aim to foster a better learning environment and help students succeed in their studies.
