Kids that get free lunches can also get free school supplies from that county but most parents do not know this. Last year I told someone I know about this and she ask the office at the school and was told it was not true. I then told her to call or go to the school board or call the number on the free lunch form. She did and the school gave each of her kids backpacks with everything they needed in them.

I know those items dont last all year tho. So if you have a child in school you may want to talk to the teacher and ask if you can donate the items to her class or to someone she my think needs them. For not all kids get free lunch but may still need help with school supplies for one reason or another.

Even ask your childern if they know anyone that they think could use a backpack with school supplies. They probly know more than the teachers do.
