District Attorney David Soares delivers backpacks for students in need

Oct. 3, 2011—On Wednesday, Sept. 28, Albany County District Attorney David Soares hand-delivered 25 backpacks filled with school supplies to help needy students in the Guilderland Central School District.

Working in partnership with Victory Church in Albany, Soares distributed 944 backpacks to schools and students throughout Albany County as part of the "Enough" program--an anti-violence campaign. The backpacks were filled with paper, notebooks, binders, colored pencils, glue sticks, and other assorted school supplies.

During his visit to GCSD, Soares extended praise for Guilderland’s commitment to safe and respectful schools for all students. The District Attorney had attended the district's "Taking a Stand event" event with John Halligan last May and could not say enough about the program, our students, and the shared commitment in Guilderland.
