WHO: Vice Mayor Pro-Tem (VMPT) Jerry Davis will announce donations from Kroger, Riley-McLean Land, the families of River Oaks Baptist School, the National Dental Association, and the McConnell Group. These donations are being used to re-outfit District B students as they head back to school in one of the most affected parts of the city, in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. A select group of students and school administrators will be in attendance.

WHAT: As the city continues to rebuild, VMPT Davis remains focused on District B students - of which more than 90% qualify as economically disadvantaged. He hopes that the generosity and solidarity expressed and evidenced through these donations will ensure a more stable future for District B schools and foster a stronger base for academic success. Of these donations, VMPT Davis said, "Our students have always been my top priority, and now that they're facing historic adversity we need to do everything we can to bring them back on track. These contributions will make a significant difference in the lives of our students. Additionally, I know that a strong community is the first step towards success, which is why I'm proud that Kids for Kids is helping to build relationships between our city's students, closing the gap in education."
