Help us collect School Supplies for needy families!

No one should be afraid of the start of school....including the parents.  So that's why we are teaming up with Pippin McGee, TV10, Big 102.1, and Pixus Printing on a big SCHOOL SUPPLY DRIVE this week (Monday, July 26th - Tuesday, August 3rd).

The cost of school uniforms, shoes, socks and supplies is overwhelming and for many needy families and they are worried and afraid of how they will pay for it all.  So now through next Tuesday we are going to collect “The List” and help families who can’t afford all the supplies that are required now for school.

Please help us collect enough supplies so that no one has to be afraid of the start of school.

• loose-leaf paper

• 24-count crayons
• paper towels
• Pencil sharpener with shavings holder
• Hand Sanitizer
