On Saturday from 10 a.m. until 12 p.m. the Geneva Area NAACP will host its 20th Back to School supply giveaway.
To avoid downtown construction, the event will be in the Geneva Housing Authority’s Lewis and Tillman streets parking lot.
Students must be with a parent or guardian to receive supplies.
The event is sponsored by contributions from Sheldrake Point Vineyard in Ovid, the Courtyard Tenants Association, and donations from Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Finger Lakes Community College, local churches, concerned citizens, and the Geneva NAACP. A grant from The Wyckoff Family Foundation also helps fund the event.
Donations are being accepted at the site by dropping them off around 9 a.m.
