Where We Have Been

Founded in 1999, the Platte County Health Department and other community partners started the first annual BTSF. Ninety-four children from all four public school systems were supplied with backpacks and hygiene products. As time went on, the numbers of low-income children steadily grew. Exhibitors equipped with resources to address physical, mental, and social needs were introduced.


Who We Are

The Platte County Back to School Fair Association, Inc. is a team of community stakeholders consisting of schools, public health professionals, social workers, and volunteers striving to provide
low-income families school resources, access to care, and prevention education.

Where We Are Now

In 2016, BTSFA became a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization in Platte County with a mission to provide Platte County
low-income families an equal and safe opportunity for school readiness by enriching physical, mental and social well-being.

As of 2019, 14,853 Platte County children have attended the Back to School Fair. Children have been provided access to care, backpacks full of school supplies, hygiene products, and community resources.
