Lakes Area Youth Assistance gave back to the local community on Wednesday by handing out 500 bags stuffed with school supplies to district families to help them prepare for the 2024-25 school year.
Bags were filled with items based on grade level. There were different items for elementary aged students, as well as middle school and high school.
