The Salvation Army, in partnership with Fry's Food Stores recently kicked off the "2009 Pack to School Drive". The drive runs until August 4th and will benefit local underprivileged students. The community can support this program by donating school supplies at their local Fry's Food Store. The Salvation Army is seeking contributions of basic school supplies such as backpacks, crayons, colored markers, pens, pencils and the like. You can help The Salvation Army reach our goal of collecting 10,000 backpacks and more than 300,000 items of school supplies statewide. Supplies will be distributed through The Salvation Army programs. For more information about the drive, please visit The Salvation Army's Web site at
