Back To School Event
The Helping Hands Initiative and Community Partners back to school back packs and supplies give-away held August 17, 2013 at Gaines Park, West Palm Beach, FL was an outstanding success. Through the tremendous efforts of HHI and Community Partners, over 2,200 students-K-12th grade were provided with back packs, pencils, erasers, pens, glue, dictionaries, binders, rulers, etc. to begin the school year equipped for success. Research indicates that children are more studious and open to learning when they begin the school year with the right school equipment.
Helping Hands Initiative would like to thank a long list of people- the staff of all the community organizations that partnership with HHI, contributors, vendors, city-state officials, volunteers, barbers, beautician, security, food servers, DJ, ministers, etc. who made this event such an outstanding success.
