Aware of a need in many North Texas school districts, Soulman’s Bar-B-Que is teaming up with local Dallas radio station, 94.9 KLTY, to host a backpack and school supplies drive at all of their 21 North Texas locations beginning on July 22.
“We are strongly committed to the communities we serve. In the spirit of back-to-school and access to great education for each and every child, we are opening our doors to anyone who wants to gather new school supplies, fill as many backpacks as they can and bring them to any of our collection boxes. Our goal is to get as many supplies and backpacks to students in time for the first day of the 2019-2020 school year,” said Soulman’s Bar-B-Que Director of Marketing, Baylea Wood.
Soulman’s and 94.9 KLTY will be hosting a Kick-Off Event Aug. 3 at the Rowlett Chamber of Commerce from 10 a.m. to noon.
