IDEA Public Schools is organizing six free backpack giveaways throughout the Rio Grande Valley during July and August as part of their Backpacks for Bright Futures initiative. The first 600 school-aged children at each event will receive a backpack filled with essential school supplies. Children must attend with a guardian, and there is no limit on how many backpacks a family can receive. Local businesses will also provide additional resources and activities. The first giveaway is on July 11, 2026, at IDEA Weslaco Academy, with subsequent events in Edinburg, La Joya, San Juan, Palmview, and Brownsville. For details, visit www.ideapublicschools.org.
