| Posted: 8/20/2008
MIRAMAR BEACH, Fla. -- Sacred Heart Hospital on the Emerald Coast recently hosted its 6th annual Back-to-School Drive to benefit area students. Just days before school began, Sacred Heart associates delivered complete school supply packs for 166 students at Freeport Elementary School and Freeport Middle School.
“We appreciate your support so much, especially during this challenging economic time that greatly affects our students’ families,” said Beth Tucker, Freeport Middle School principal. “Sacred Heart’s back-to-school drive is a wonderful gift that we rely on throughout the year.”
In addition to the school supplies, Sacred Heart associates also provided 40 new pairs of shoes. The school administrators distributed the supplies on a need-basis.
Sacred Heart Hospital on the Emerald Coast is honored and privileged to give back to the community through projects such as the School Supply Drive each August, the Turkey Drive at Thanksgiving, the Angel Tree Drive at Christmas, the Easter Basket Drive, Habitat for Humanity workdays, Adopt-a-Highway clean-up days and much more.
