Since August, WRRV has been working with Finkelstein and Partners, Walden Savings Bank, T-Mobile of the Hudson Valley, and the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Hudson Valley to make sure as many kids as possible are fully prepared for the school year ahead.

The outpouring of support was amazing, but the school supplies themselves were just the first step. The finale was stuffing backpacks with every supply a student could possibly need.
