CHARLOTTE — Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte is collecting school supplies for students in need.
“We are very mindful of the many, many ways in which COVID-19 has dramatically impacted our lives,” said Dr. Gerard Carter, Catholic Charities’ executive director. “This is especially the case for students who are returning to instruction amid great uncertainty.”
Collecting school supplies and backpacks is one more way the agency is providing help to children who are especially vulnerable during the pandemic.
Carter said the agency is grateful for any donations of new school supplies.
