Back to School!

As most moms know, it’s almost school time again! Most of you are probably feeling excited and maybe a bit sad that summer is almost over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things going on, such as new teachers, new friends or perhaps even a new school. One thing is for sure, these days, school supplies are always an expense at the beginning of each school year. For families with more than one child in school, it can be heavy on the budget. The average family could spend as much as over six hundred dollars on back-to-school supplies. Granted, if your child goes to private school, then don’t forget to tack on a few hundred dollars to that bill for textbooks.


With that said, around the nation, groups are working hard to help needy kids get school supplies and are seeing a significant rise in the number of kids that need help. With so many celebrities on social networks, you would think that someone would reach out.
