On Saturday, June 7th, 400 families and community members came together for another successful Tallahatchie County Back to School Expo! Across both sides of the county, families geared up with free items for the upcoming school year: school uniforms, backpacks, supplies and books, child ID cards, diapers, feminine and incontinence product packs, and much more.
THANK YOU to all our Back to School Expo community partners, volunteers, and donors who helped TELA purchase school uniforms and backpacks for Tallahatchie County students in grades PreK-12:
