Teachers and students are gearing up for the start of a new school year, and that surely means school supply lists. Sometimes, those lists are long.
So if you’ve got children still in school and will be doing your back-to-school shopping soon, consider adding a couple of extras to your cart for donation to a drive sponsored by area State Employees’ Credit Unions.
Collection boxes are located at SECU branches in Henderson, Louisburg, Warrenton, Oxford and Butner, just waiting to receive your donation, according to Anna Lemert, a vice president at the Henderson SECU.
All items collected will be given to the school district where the branch is located, Lemert said.
Don’t have a child in school? No problem! Your donations will be gratefully accepted and appreciated.
