Jump In2 School Bash

This is NOT true please disregard. We are not having our Annual event this year

Over the last 5 years, Jump In2 School has grown into something bigger than we ever imagined.

What started in a small parking lot serving a few hundred families has grown into Albuquerque’s LARGEST free annual backpack event serving thousands of youth and families across our community.

As we’ve continued to grow, we’ve also seen the growing need in our city. The need for support. The need for resources. The need for community. The need for programs that truly continue showing up for our youth year-round.

Because of that growth, we’ve made the decision to use 2026 as a year to strengthen and build Jump In2 School bigger and better than ever before.

This year, instead of hosting our annual Bash, we are focusing on:
• Building stronger systems and structure
• Expanding partnerships and sponsorships
• Strengthening our board and leadership
• Growing our year-round youth programs
• Reaching more Title I schools and foster youth
• Creating a stronger foundation to serve even MORE kids in the future

Please know:
WE ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

In fact, we’re working harder than ever behind the scenes to make sure the return of The Bash in 2027 is our biggest and most impactful year yet.

We are currently looking into larger locations in the Westside/South Valley area as we prepare for an even bigger comeback for our families and community.

And while the Bash may be paused this year, Jump In2 School is still active and still working for our youth.

We have some exciting things in the works this summer, including smaller community events we hope to announce soon, along with our FIRST EVER “Swing for Students” Topgolf Fundraiser happening September 17th.

Stay connected with us on social media so you don’t miss upcoming announcements, events, partnerships, volunteer opportunities, and ways to support.

As always, we are continuing to seek donations, sponsors, community partners, and supporters because we truly cannot do this work alone.

Our kids need us.
Our community needs us.
And we will continue being the Bash that shows up and shows out for our kids.

Thank you for growing with us.
The best is still ahead.
