IDEA Public Schools is organizing six free backpack giveaways throughout the Rio Grande Valley in July and August as part of the 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 the number of backpacks per family. Local businesses will also provide additional resources and activities. The events kick off on July 11, 2026, at IDEA Weslaco Academy, with subsequent giveaways in Edinburg, La Joya, San Juan, Palmview, and Brownsville.
