We haven't even quite made it to Summer, but community members are preparing for the second annual Back to School Fest. The organizations are seeking volunteers to donate their time to equip students and teachers with supplies they need for the first day of classes.
The event is set for 10am to 4pm, Aug. 17th at Jackson Park. This exciting event is aimed to to give school supplies, backpacks, and nutritious meals to children and families who attend.
Last year the inaugural event last year served 475 students. Supplies were given to the Boys and Girls Club of Henderson County as well as several schools and teachers.
Monetary donations can be submitted to Back to School Fest, P.O. Box 1431, Hendersonville, NC 28793. For additional info, please call 828-290-6580.
