Drive-Thru School Supply Giveaway this Saturday

Cary, NC — While it will look a bit different this year, The Salvation Army of Wake County’s yearly back to school giveaway is back.

How to Get a School Supply Kit

For the fourth consecutive year, the Salvation Army is teaming up with the Raleigh-based John Wall Family Foundation to provide free back to school kits from 10 AM – 12 PM this Saturday, September 19, 2020.
The only rule is that a school-age child must be in the car to receive the back to school kit.
The event will be drive-thru style and hosted at The Salvation Army of Wake County International Corps and Red Shield Club, located at 902 Wake Forest Road in Raleigh. This is a first-come, first-serve event with strict social distancing measures in place.
