Happy 1st Day of School!!!!!!!! 🎒 📝

07/28/2026

Today was a reminder that the smallest acts of kindness can make the biggest difference. 📚❤️

Today, Lakes of Love had the privilege of delivering school supplies to the beautiful new Lake Park Elementary School. Every backpack and every school supply represents a child who will walk into the classroom feeling a little more prepared and a little more confident.

We also had the opportunity to tour the amazing new school…and yes, we may have taken a ride down the giant slide! 🛝😂

Thank you to everyone who donated, shared, and supported this year’s School Supply Drive. Because of you, students in our community are starting the school year with the supplies they need—and the reminder that their community is cheering them on.

Here’s to a fantastic school year, Lake Park Elementary! We can’t wait to see all the great things these students accomplish.

❤️ Together, we spread love—one backpack, one smile, and one child at a time.
