back to school
supply drive
Every student deserves to start the school year feeling prepared, confident, and ready to learn. Help us ensure every DBG student has the school supplies they need by shopping our Amazon Wish Lists.
Whether you purchase a single notebook or fill an entire shopping cart, every donation helps remove barriers to learning and supports students as they begin a new school year.
Choose the grade level you’d like to support:
Donation Deadline:
To ensure backpacks can be packed in time for our Back to School Bash & Orientation, please have all Amazon donations delivered by Tuesday, August 18, 2026.
Thank you for helping every DBG student start the school year equipped, confident, and ready to succeed.
Prefer to Make a Monetary Gift?
If you’d rather not shop for individual supplies, you can still help prepare students for a successful school year by making a financial contribution. Donations will be used to purchase the remaining school supplies needed after our Amazon Wish Lists are fulfilled, ensuring every DBG student receives a fully stocked backpack before the first day of school.

Through thoughtful connection, we aim to align students’ interests with the experiences of professionals—creating pathways to internships, continued education, and future careers.
For professionals, your presence matters. This is an opportunity to share your journey, offer guidance, and connect with driven young people who are actively shaping their futures.
We hope you’ll join us for an impactful evening of conversation, connection, and possibility.
