CRESTVIEW — Woodlawn Baptist Church staffers are accepting school supplies and clothing for needy children.
The Aug. 16 Back to School: Clothing and School Supply Giveaway provides necessities for local children's upcoming school year. Families benefiting from the drive are asked to bring a canned food item for the church’s food pantry.
“It’s our circle of giving,” said event organizer Casey Moorman, the church’s financial secretary.
The church also seeks new and slightly used clothing and shoes for school-age children.
Donations can be dropped off at the church’s front office, open 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Last year’s giveaway assisted 100 families in the area, Moorman said.
