School is around the corner for nearly every campus in Long Beach. That means it’s time to dust off those backpacks and take stock of what school supplies are needed. For anyone in need of a cost-free way to restock children for school, here’s a list of giveaway events coming up soon.
Saturday, Aug. 15 at 4600 Long Beach Blvd.
Councilmember Tunua Thrash-Ntuk will host her second annual backpack giveaway this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the tennis courts at Scherer Park in North Long Beach.
The event will include free children’s haircuts, free backpacks filled with school supplies, free food, a bounce house, various giveaways and raffles along with crafts and games.
Supplies will be given out on a first-come, first-served basis, and children must be present to receive the giveaway…
