Book Bag Benevolence

Gwinnett County Dept of Family and Children Services needs your help to see that Gwinnett County children in Foster Care and Child Protective Services have a new book bag and school supplies to start the school year.Β  It means so much to a child who often has done without a lot of things to proudly carry a new book bag to school that first day-just like the other kids!

How to help: Place all school supplies inside each book bag, label bag as to the school grade and gender it is intended for and deliver to the National Guard Armory, 261 E. Crogan St, Lawrenceville, July 23-24, between 9:00 am and 4:00 pm.

For more information contact Kim Crawford at 770-339-2370 or khcrawford@dhr.state.ga.us
