Birch Family Services Launches Back to School Campaign

Birch Family Services has launched its 2026 Back-to-School Campaign, inviting community members to help ensure that Birch students and educators begin the school year with the tools they need to learn, communicate, and thrive. Through educator-created school wish lists, supporters can purchase essential classroom resources and make a direct impact this fall.

For 51 years, Birch Family Services has helped children across New York City learn, grow, and reach milestones that matter to them and their families.

This back-to-school season, you can help give Birch students and educators the resources they need for a strong start.

Students like Zion, who attends our Mill Basin Early Childhood Center, experience the impact of that support every day.

Before coming to Birch, Zion was experiencing delays in his speech and language development. His family was looking for a supportive environment where he could build his communication skills, gain confidence, and receive the individualized attention he needed to thrive.

They found that support at Birch.

With the guidance of Birch’s dedicated educators and support staff, Zion is building his language and social skills and making meaningful progress.

“This has been transformational for Zion and our family,” his mother, Kareen, shared. “I am super excited and looking forward to all the progress we are making.”
