Back to School Support for Families | Dover News

Eastern Shore Wellness Solutions just wrapped up their tenth annual Back to School Readiness event, handing out school supplies, free haircuts, and clothing to families — all aimed at easing the financial burden of the new school year. For single parents and families with multiple kids, it’s a game-changer: one mom with seven children called it “lightening her load.” Each student walked away with gear worth $70–$100. The grant-funded nonprofit, founded by someone who grew up in the community and returned after college to help, also tackles transportation, housing, chronic illness, and more. This year’s event featured 22 vendors — double last year — plus connections to mental health, food services, and the library. Next year? They’re eyeing sports physicals and vaccinations to expand even further. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
