A HUGE thank you to the staff at Reserve Health for donating 1000s of schools supplies to our school tools collection. You name it and they donated it.
In partnership with Classroom Central, Communities In Schools-Charlotte and WSOC-TV, Charlotte Fire is collecting school supplies to distribute free to students in grades K-12. As part of the program, fire stations across the Charlotte area are accepting donations of book bags and school supplies in loving memory of Michael Johnson.
9- year-old Michael Johnson, and his cousin, Mechelle Morrison, 23, both died after a cooking fire in Charlotte in May 2018.
Many families that are vulnerable or earning low incomes depend on Classroom Central for assistance. School supplies will be distributed at Classroom Central's Free Store — a retail operation where teachers, personnel and students from nearly 200 schools across six school districts shop for free supplies throughout the academic year — and at a Mobile Free Store and other community-supported programs.
Donations can be made through Aug. 31 at ALL Charlotte Fire stations.
