Since 1997, the Children’s Center has been providing free school supplies to needy children in Fannin County. Thanks to many generous donors, children from all over the county can get the supplies they need to start school.
We are looking forward to having a Back-to-School Fair again in 2023! New location this year: the Bonham Civic Center. Various other non-profits, businesses and other organizations will once again be invited to come and set up inside to provide other resources. Back to School 2023 Vendors Form
