The school year is upon us! Right before the kiddos of Charleston headed back to school this week, the city held its annual First Day Festival. Yesterday’s festival included face-painting, boat riding, and aquarium exploring! Along with these fun activities, students received school supplies donated by the community.
Hawkes donated school supplies ranging from notebooks to colored pencils to index cards to brightly colored folders. We had a few volunteers at the festival to welcome kids to a new school year! We wish everyone the best of luck on their new 2016–2017 adventure.
One of our donation boxes was expertly decorated with Lisa Frank images and photos of other ’90s supplies.The Ravenel Bridge stretches underneath puffy clouds.

Volunteers got cute T-shirts!
The festival had plenty of bags for all the kiddos.
