I had the opportunity to document a great event at my church again this month. Each year the community at Irving Bible Church generously donates hundreds of backpacks to single parent families who have children returning back to school. From experience growing up, I know how much of a burden it places on parents who have a tight budget and are preparing to provide supplies to aid in their children’s education. Sometimes purchasing supplies can mean the difference between getting a new pair of shoes or a new coat or possibly a meal or two for the family. Irving Bible recognized the need and met it with abundance. There were several hundred families that walked through the town square and were able to receive the basic needs to start the school year off in a positive note. I witnessed the gratitude and excitement of children and parents as they were blessed with receiving a new backpack filled with supplies. You will see through my lens the families that were touched by this awesome event and see the innocent faces of those who are about to start a new chapter this week making a difference in their own lives and for their family.
