2015 Backpack-A-Thon
Last week, the Eagles teamed up with Cradles To Crayons and The United Way Of Philadelphia and South Jersey for the 2015 Backpack-A-Thon

The club level was the site of this year's event, which brought together volunteers from a number of different organizations

The goal of the event is to help local children get ready for school by giving them the supplies that they'll need for the year

The backpacks are ready to be filled!

After a word from some sponsors, the Backpack-a-thon was underway!

Each team raced to see how many bags they could fill, taking time to make sure each bag was filled correctly

Smile!

Packing away!

Teamwork is the key

That's a lot of pencils!

Take note

The event will help over 24,000 local students be ready for the school year

The school year is just around the corner

Time to get organized!

Add some color to the school year

Thanks to all the volunteers who helped make this a special day!
