White Center held a back-to-school block party and over 3,000 people joined the fun! 

World Vision, a major supporter of the event, distributed 1,350 backpacks filled with schools supplies. In addition, there were 450 personal hygiene bags distributed, valued at roughly $20,000. 

There were several community organizations on hand to share information with families; including King County Public Health, Southwest Youth and Family Services, and White Center Community Development Association.
