Day 197 - Hosted a School Supply Drive

I cannot believe there are only 5 weeks remaining in the summer.  With school quickly approaching the purchasing of school supplies is right around the corner.  For many of us the purchasing of new backpacks, school clothes and school supplies is the highlight of the summer.  For others it is a stressful time because they are just not able to afford those things for their children.  To help bridge the gap Frisco Family Services hosts a yearly Back-to-School Fair where children in need are able to receive a new outfit and shoes for school, a brand new backpack and all their required school supplies.

So for today's random act of kindness I purchased supplies and initiated a neighborhood and daycare-wide school supply drive.  We are hosting the drive through the end of the month,  prior to the Fair, so hopefully we will be able to make a  nice donation to FFS and the children of Frisco.

A number of local stores are already beginning their own school supply drives so please remember those children in need during your next shopping trip or when you are purchasing those brand new supplies for your own children.
