CONCORD — Boys & Girls Clubs of Central and Northern N.H. is celebrating the success of this year's "Pack a Pack" backpack drive, a community effort that collected and will now distribute nearly 4,500 backpacks for New Hampshire students preparing to head back to school across the state.

The drive, held each year in August, once again brought together WMUR, all the Boys & Girls Clubs in New Hampshire, the New Hampshire Food Bank and Service Credit Union in a shared mission to make sure kids across the state start the school year with the tools they need to succeed.
