School starts with community🎒✨

Each year, we're honored to continue a tradition started by Bob Leonard, whose passion for helping local schools and students continues to inspire us today💚

Now through Thursday, August 13, we're collecting new school supplies and monetary donations to help students in our community head back to school with the tools they need to succeed.

📍 Drop off donations at any of our offices:
Charleston • Cross Lanes • Hurricane

💵 Donate school supplies, cash, or checks (payable to BHGREC), or send a Venmo to and we'll do the shopping for you!

Together, we can continue Bob's legacy and help students start the school year strong💛
