Not a typical back to school event

During a typical year, the Free Store Ministries back to school event provides supplies for up to a thousand kids.. but this year isn’t typical. With concerns about the pandemic and the health of school children, everyone was required to pre-register, and volunteers put bags of supplies together for the students. Free Store Ministries Director Amber Meredith said the numbers were down…

She said donor numbers were down as well….

Meredith said that several students in the Conway School District were adopted by an area church. She said that if a parent finds they need help, stop by the Free Store on Elm Street in Lebanon or call her at 664-2290.
