Dawn Staley is making sure Columbia kids start the school year strong! This Friday, she’s teaming up with Absolute Total Care to host a free back-to-school bash at Eau Claire High School. Local students can pick up school supplies, and Staley’s nonprofit, Innersole, will be handing out new sneakers and backpacks to children in need. Plus, there’ll be face painting, popcorn, and ice cream for everyone. Events like this really show how a community can come together for its kids. Who else thinks more neighborhoods should do this? #Education #ColumbiaSC #BackToSchool
