River Church has partnered with Walmart in West Ashley to help provide school supplies for students at James Simons Elementary and Orange Grove Elementary Charter Schools. James Simons is a Title I school in the inner city of Charleston that relies heavily on donations for school supplies. Orange Grove serves many families who are struggling financially right here in West Ashley.
Our GOAL is to present 300 backpacks full of school supplies to students of these schools!
On Friday, July 30 & Saturday, July 31 from 6am – 12 midnight each day, we will pass out school supply lists to customers as they enter, serve the Walmart staff breakfast, help customers find the items in the store, put the donated supplies in backpacks, and then store the backpacks ready to deliver.
This is gonna be BIG!
On behalf of our students, thank you for getting them off to a great start!Larry DiCenzoPrincipalOrange Grove Elementary School
