Help us send Portsmouth’s students back to school with all the supplies they need! All items will go to the Back to School Backpack Giveaway which will be held at the Greenleaf Recreation Center in Portsmouth. Operation Blessing is leading this initiative, their goal is to provide the 250+ children ages K-12 who live at Gosling Meadows and Wamesit Place with school supplies for the upcoming year.
