Prince William County, VA Back to School Supply Drive

Prince William County, VA Back to School Supply Drive

I know what you’re thinking.  It’s June 21, 2010.  Prince William County Public Schools just let out last Friday, June 18th.  Why in the world is Chris Ann talking about a Back-to-School Supply Drive?

I promise you, it’s not because I have been sniffing glue, or inhaling deeply from the Sharpie markers that I like to use to write on my Short Sale Listing folders.  And I’m not trying to be a summer buzzkill.

Corey Stewart, Chairmen of the Board of County Supervisors, sent out a notification today about summer school supply drives in which his office is participating.  One is the Regional Chamber’s Tools for School and the other is SERVE’s Ready to Learn.  The supplies donated to these programs will go to underprivileged students in Prince William County schools from Kindergarten to 12th Grade.

Deadline to donate is Friday, August 6th.    Drop off the items to Corey Stewart’s office at 1 County Complex Drive, Prince William, VA 22192.

Here’s the list of items that Corey Stewart’s office is collecting.   Please help out if you can.
