MetLife Foundation Community Impact Grant

In April 2025, MetLife Foundation announced the expansion of its Community Impact Grant Program (CIGP), with a commitment of $5 million to local organizations addressing the essential needs of people with low incomes.

We are proud to announce that Backpacks for Life has been one of 103 organizations worldwide selected to receive a grant from MetLife. These funds will go towards our backpack distribution over the next two years.
