Springside Chestnut Hill Academy: Helping the Homeless Backpacks

Alexa Rhodes started Helping the Homeless Backpacks while attending our school in 2019. She has positively impacted the homeless community in Philadelphia by leveraging the resources from her 10th-grade Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership Capstone class. She secured donations from individuals and corporate partners and assembled thousands of backpacks during her time at SCH. Our project extended her work and delivered more backpacks to homeless Philadelphians.
