Democrats donate backpacks
to SJES for new school year
The Jackson County Democrats had a summer commu
nity service project to collect and donate backpacks for
students beginning the new school year. This was part of
the group’s mission to serve the community.
“Part of the philosophy of the Democratic party is that
every child has the ability to learn and excel when given
the opportunity.” vice chairman Pete Fuller states.
The members of the party put together 21 backpacks
filled with essential school supplies. The filled backpacks
were then donated to South Jackson Elementary School to
distribute to any of their students in need.
“The school officials were very appreciative of the
donation and all hope that there will be dividends paid in
the future by the achievements made by the student recip
ients,” Fuller said.
