Volunteer: Back to School PBC!

Posted April 30, 2025

Back to School PBC! is an annual event where parents can kick off the school year with everything their Palm Beach County student needs to thrive. This amazing community event is packed with FREE school supplies, valuable resources, and exciting surprises to get children geared up and ready for success.

This year’s event is expected to serve over 12,000 students countywide, with approximately 6,000 attending at the Convention Center alone. Students will be staggered throughout the day, with roughly 250 students served every 15 minutes. We have multiple volunteer opportunities on both the set-up and event days, but slots fill up quickly, so please take a look at the spots available and sign up today! You may be asked to assist with additional tasks as needed throughout the event. Please be prepared to remain flexible and help where most needed. Thank you for participating and sharing your heart to help our most vulnerable families.
