The Hispanic owner-operator Carmen Solano De Carrier and her team put a smile on the faces of children and their parents at the Annual Back to School Fair. This year the fair was extended to four dates and four McDonald’s restaurants where 2000 backpacks were distributed. In each of the locations, hundreds of parents and their children, formed long lines to receive one of the backpacks that also contained school materials. In addition to motivating kids to go back to school with a new backpack, the fair helps alleviate family expenses that tend to increase at this time of the year. Leading the day’s activities was Carmen Solano De Carrier, who also took the opportunity to greet parents and thank members of the community for their support.
