Henry Schein held its first in-person “Back to School” event at its worldwide headquarters in Melville, N.Y. since 2019. Approximately 400 pre-identified children and their families received backpacks, school supplies, and gift cards to purchase their choice of first-day-of-school outfits. The event also included a BBQ, games, music, crafts, and other activities, including an interactive science presentation.

Additionally, the event featured a tent with free books donated by Team Schein Members and KPMG LLP – the U.S. audit, tax, and advisory firm – through its Family for Literacy programme and partnership with non-profit social enterprise First Book. One of several “Back to School” events being held around the world, the fun-filled evening provided participating children and families with an uplifting experience to kick off a successful school year.
