The upcoming school year school supply drive hosted by Edward Jones Financial Advisor Zach Sheets started yesterday.

You are encouraged to donate school supplies like backpacks, folders, paper, pencils or just about any school supply item for elementary schools and students.  By the way, the tax-free weekend is Friday, August 3 through Sunday, August 5.

You can drop off your donations at the Edward Jones Office in east La Follette.  It’s in the Mountain Rock Plaza next to La Follette Medical Center.  Cash and checks cannot be accepted.

Sheets personal campaign runs through Thursday, August 16, and benefits all eight Campbell County Elementary Schools.  He says, “Your generosity is appreciated, and we’re proud to support the academic development of young minds in our community through this summer’s school supply donation program.”

If you have questions, require additional information or simply would like to discuss this donation opportunity, please contact Sheets at 423-566-4010 or zach.sheets@edwardjones.com. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED – 07/11/2018-6AM)
