You can start registering your child or making donations to the Kewaunee County Back to School Program that will be held later this summer.  The program provides required school supplies for children and families who are in need.  Kewaunee County Public Health Director Cindy Kinnard says any families that have an emergency situation, are on WIC, Food Share, or Badger Care, as well as those on reduced or free lunch programs are eligible.  She says she is proud of the support the Back to School program has received over the years. 

The Back to School Program distribution will be on Wednesday, August 16 at Lakehaven Hall in Kewaunee, with registrations due by August 7.  Registrations were sent out earlier this year by the schools, but forms can be picked up at the Kewaunee County Public Health Department, Algoma Public Library, Kewaunee Public Library and Nicolet National Bank in Luxemburg.   

You can help with monetary donations or by dropping off school supplies at the many boxes at area churches, Nicolet National Bank in Luxemburg, or the Kewaunee County Public Health Department.
