The entrance to classes is just around the corner and there are hundreds of children in the country who do not have supplies or uniforms for this school year.
This is an alliance in conjunction with the Municipality of Moravia, the entity in charge of distributing the packages in the area.
Those interested can make their donation until next February 20. For more
information on the other supply list, you can visit Lincoln Plaza's social networks.
