Fresh Start: A Wicomico County Back to School Event provides students in need with resources to help them achieve success. More than a dozen organizations have collaborated on this initiative, in an effort to reach thousands of children and invest in the future of the area’s youth. Because of this cooperative approach, students are able to receive backpacks, supplies and haircuts, while families can learn about community resources and enjoy fun activities.
