Free School Supplies for 24 Southampton Elementary, Middle and High School Students

With the loss of jobs, inflation and general economic problems throughout the United States due to to Covid-19, The Coard Foundation decided this month to purchase school supplies for 24 students in Southampton County. Thank you also to members of Boykins United Methodist Church and Tarrara Women’s Club for selling shoes at just $1 per pair and donating all proceeds to The Coard Foundation. All leftover shoes were donated to other charities and all leftover school supplies were donated to Meherrin elementary School. What a wonderful day that turned out to be!
