Gram Worthy Picks
A prompt to encourage your practice of creativity this week from Riversider and local author Larry Burns.
School Supplies, clothes, and haircuts are among the services provided at these Back to School events.
Summer break doesn’t last until Labor Day anymore. Most kids return to school the second week of August. “School Clothes,” a fresh haircut, and a new backpack are all part of most students' routine for the new academic year. Some, however, are not in a position to have new things for their first day back.
A few local organizations work to ensure that every child has the chance to feel fresh for the new year. Overflow Farms plans to give away 1,000 backpacks and haircuts at its July 21 event. You can support the Casa Blanca Home of Neighborly Service on July 20th by bringing needed supplies to Shamel Park for their annual Bearded Villains backpack giveaway.
Opportunities for students in need and for people looking to help can be found at the links below:
