Tamia Wilson continues to give back to her community.

The 17-year-old Rodriguez High School senior is wrapping up her third annual backpack and school supply drive. She calls the effort Reach One, Teach One.

Donations, and fundraisers she organizes herself, keep her dream alive.

Her goal this year is to stuff 200 backpacks. Her reward comes from the happy faces of elementary, middle and high school students who get the backpacks.

“It’s exciting to see their smiles,” she said. “They are happy to have the backpacks.”
