Back-to-school season is upon us! We've joined forces with like-minded organizations to support our community’s youth as they say goodbye to summer and embark on the 2024-2025 school year. 📚🖍️ We enjoyed being a part of the Latin American Association Back to School Bash, the Dalton-Whitfield NAACP Back to School Jam, and the Murray County Schools Back to School Bash! Together, we’re helping young people realize their full potential and growing stronger communities.
