Smiles for Students: Back-to-School Drive
We are proud to partner with Pepsi this summer for Smiles for Students, a back-to-school drive to support youth in the Corona-Norco Unified School District who are experiencing foster care, homelessness, poverty, or domestic violence.

Through July 15, 2025, we’re collecting new school supplies, clothing essentials, and hygiene items to help over 700 students start the school year with confidence and care.

Who We're Supporting
This drive specifically benefits students connected to All Stars (foster youth) and Club Hope (students experiencing homelessness)—two vital programs within the district plus select students who are experiencing domestic violence at home.
