Henry Schein's Back to School program, which was first introduced in 1998, is a program by which Team Schein Members partner with the Company to gift school supplies to underserved children in the local areas to lift their spirits and increase their confidence in the classroom.

Henry Schein Cares and Team Schein Engagement work in partnership with local not-for-profit social service organizations to identify recipients. Over the last 27 years, the Company has expanded Back to School from its inaugural program, which served 175 children, to coordinated programs at sites throughout the world where the Company operates, serving more than 65,000 children since the program's inception.

Children receive a backpack filled with school supplies, books, and hygiene products to make their first day enjoyable and stress-free.

• Medical and dental products for back-to-school kits provided through Henry Schein Cares.
• At some locations, Team Schein Members host a back-to-school party where children receive their backpacks and supplies while enjoying a fun day filled with food and festivities.
• The Henry Schein Cares Foundation funds $100 gift cards for each child at Henry Schein's Corporate Headquarters in Melville, Long Island, in addition to backpack donations.

In 2022. Henry Schein celebrated 25 years of its Back to School program. Watch Team Schein in action and past examples of the program's benefit to children and their families.
