The Journey Helps Teachers Prepare for New School Year
The Journey (Lynchburg, VA) wrapped up its Teacher Appreciation Drive on August 3rd by handing out supplies to teachers. In a partnership with the Mardel Christian and Education Store in Lynchburg, listeners donated approximately 780 individual items during July.
A collection bin was located just inside the store where the supplies could be dropped off prior to being sorted and placed in the gift bags. Notebooks, poster board, sanitary wipes, and markers were among the items handed out to teachers.
Journey Promotions Coordinator, Deborah Poole said the drive truly represents a community effort, “It’s an honor to be part of supporting our teachers who give so much to our children in this community.”
This was the third annual Teacher Appreciation Drive as part of the station’s outreach efforts.
