Lorena ISD has partnered with Family Health Center to offer preventative treatment which includes a visual inspection of the teeth, X-Rays, cleaning and sealant application. These services will be offered to grade levels Pre-K through 8th grade.

This Saturday, August 9th the McLennan County Pack of Hope (along with Waco Women's Lions Club, Allen Samuels, Brookshire Brothers, and News25) will host a "Fill a Fiat" event to stock up on items for the charity. 

Pack of Hope's mission (from their website) is "to erase child hunger in McLennan County by supplying participating school districts and their eligible students with backpacks filled with nutritious food to prevent hunger from Friday through Sunday while they are not in school."

The Fiat will be parked in the Lorena Brookshire Brothers parking lot from 11 am to 2 pm Saturday. They will accept donations from the Pack of Hope wish list (found here) or cash.
