Backpacks For The Street (Together Helping Others)
"The idea to launch a backpacks program for people living on the streets came about one night in February, 2018. Co-founders Jeffrey Newman and Jayson Conner were beginning the process of creating Together Helping Others, their full-service nonprofit for the homeless. Realizing that it would take significant time to get THO launched, the guys weren’t content sitting on the sidelines until then. So they decided to launch with BFTS.
While they knew the backpacks concept to was not a revolutionary idea, the J’s knew it was the right program to get THO off the ground. Moreover, they knew they would bring their 10 years of experience into the process and put their own twist on bringing compassion and assistance to those living on the streets."
