The Salvation Army Hampton Roads Area Command is partnering with Chick-fil-A at Broad Creek Crossing, 1205 N. Military Highway in Norfolk, to host a school supply drive on Tuesday from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Those who donate new school supplies or make a monetary donation during the supply drive will receive a coupon for a free Chick-fil-A sandwich or chicken nuggets.
For over 30 years, The Salvation Army Hampton Roads Area Command, with the help of community partners and donors, has worked to ensure that children in Hampton Roads start the new school year with the “Write Stuff.” The initiative is an annual event that distributes backpacks to students who reside in Chesapeake, Norfolk or Virginia Beach.
The backpacks will be distributed to eligible families Aug. 9 and 10 at the Hampton Roads Kroc Center.
