Dozens of islanders have got behind a scheme to provide backpacks and stationery to local kids ahead of the new school term.
It comes after a couple launched an appeal earlier this month.
Keith and Madina Sharpe asked islanders to donate good quality or new bags filled with a selection contents such as notebooks, pencils, crayons and pencil cases.
Many have now been donated and the pair posted on social media to say thank you.
If you would like to help, there is still time- you can drop off your donation at Motor Mall in Douglas until the 27th August.
The bags are being handed on to families via the Isle of Man Foodbank.
