THE STORY:

Parasec is proud to be participating in Operation Backpack® for the third year, helping children in need succeed in school by providing them with backpacks and grade specific supplies. Each year, Operation Backpack® helps thousands of homeless, at-risk, and foster children from preschool to high school levels throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento area, and Reno regions. At Parasec, we truly believe that we can all make a difference in these children’s lives by helping prepare them for school, and essentially encouraging them to be excited to learn.
