The nation-wide campaign, which runs until Aug. 31, is encouraging people to visit a SleepCountry location and drop off new backpacks filled with school supplies which will be distributed to needy kids. Since its inception in 2005, the campaign has helped more than 20,000 Canadian students arrive at school equipped and ready to go.
