Your child just needs to be there with a parent or legal guardian. \n  \nThe event runs from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.\, but it may end earlier if all backpacks have already been given out. \n  \nFor event questions or updates\, follow @ChromeFlwrs on Instagram or email info@chromeflwrs.com. \n  \nAbout Chrome Flwrs\nChrome Flwrs is a local Greenpoint retail store founded by Brooklyn natives. \n  \nOur mission is to find meaningful ways to give back to the community that supports us. \n  \nBecause our roots are in Brooklyn\, community is a big part of what we do. \n  \nEvents like The Backpack Project are an extension of our mission.
