Solano education officials are soliciting donations of backpacks and school supplies this month to benefit the county’s neediest students.

About 1,500 students in Solano County were homeless as of January, said Becky Cruz, program manager of the Solano County Office of Education Foster and Homeless Youth Services.

More could have become homeless since then, Cruz said.
