Backpack Giveaway

Saturday morning, our church did a backpack giveaway to help out the community around our church. We know that there are tons of people with multi children that can't afford all the school supplies, backpacks and school fees and we wanted to reach out and try to help as many as we could.

The doors were scheduled to open at 10am and I got there about twenty minutes until time and the parking lot was packed and I awalked inside to find that the line was almost to the front door. It was pretty dark out and looked like the bottom was going to drop at any time, so they'd opened the doors and started letting people line up inside instead of outside where they'd been lined up since just after 8am.


This is Becky and I toward the end of the morning. SHE said we were looking good and almost matching for this picture! LOL

Here here a big portion of our volunteers for the morning! I know some had left before we got the picture but we had a great group for the day.
