"Through this back to school drive, we are encouraging our clients and the community to bring in books for underprivileged children in the Valley. To further support the Assistance League, Brillare will match every book donated at our academies with a new children's book for Operation School Bell ."

"We have more than 250 volunteer members, many of whom help dress children with new school uniforms and help them select a book to keep. School leaders tell us that the new clothes, as well as the books, are treasured by these extremely needy students and really help to build their self esteem."
