H-E-B supermarkets donate school supplies, funds to Burleson's Harvest House

It may seem like summer's just begun, but folks are already getting ready for classes to gear back up again.

Harvest House, a Burleson relief agency that provides food, clothes and financial help, runs the Little Red School House, which serves about 350 each year by providing their families school supplies, haircuts and immunizations.

On Wednesday, officials from the H-E-B supermarket chain donated a $2,500 check plus $2,500 worth of school supplies to the Little Red School House. The organization will give out supplies at an annual back-to-school event on Aug. 18.

Meanwhile, donations are being collected in a supply drive that runs through Aug. 12. More than businesses and churches are serving as drop-off locations for donated school supplies.
