It’s just about back-t0-school time already (crazy, I know) and Scotties Tissues is giving us all an opportunities to get involved with helping kids in need. Scotties Facial Tissues launched a great new campaign in partnership with the Kids In Need Foundation (KINF) to inspire children to be prepared for the school year to help them do their best.
To get involved, you can simply record your child answering this question:
“If you could put one thing in a backpack and then give it to a kid who needed help getting through the school day, what would that one thing be and why?”
Share you video on social media with the hashtag #ReadySetSchool for your video to count towards the Scotties’ video goals!
Did You Know?
According to KINF, students who go without the school supplies they need struggle with self-esteem and perform worse in school than students with adequate supplies?
We want to change that! The folks at Scotties know it’s the little things in life that matter. Every child, no matter what their circumstances, should have the supplies they need to help them be engaged in learning. Pencils, crayons and paper may seem inconsequential to the learning process, but for a child in need, they can make a world of difference.
1 to 1 Promise!
For every video you post on social media, Scotties donates a backpack. (Remember, use the hashtag #ReadySetSchool)
This is a great opportunity to get your child(ren) involved in helping other kids, because for every video created and shared on social media (Twitter, Instagram and Facebook) using the hashtag #ReadySetSchool, a backpack filled with school supplies will be donated to a kid in need (up to 1,400 backpacks total) by Scotties.
