As a new school year approaches, WALR-FM (Kiss 104.1) in Atlanta and Mabra Law have collaborated to equip more than 500 Atlanta area students with backpacks filled with essential school supplies. The backpacks were thoughtfully curated for different age groups, with items ranging from pencils to scientific calculators. Children across the Atlanta area will head back to the classroom with the tools they need to succeed.

Many families are struggling to purchase the required supplies for the 2023-2024 school year. Thanks to a generous donation from Mabra Law, over 500 backpacks packed with vital educational resources were distributed to families from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta on July 22, and to the WSB-TV Stuff The Bus campaign benefiting The Children's Restoration Network on July 29.

"Atlanta is my home. The people of Atlanta are my family. The Mabra Law team and I are honored to give back to our Atlanta family by sponsoring Backpacks for Back to School with Kiss 104.1, The Boys & Girls Club of Atlanta, and The Children's Restoration Network providing local children with the tools they need to make the most of the upcoming school year," said Mabra Law Founder & Managing Partner Ronnie E. Mabra, Jr.

"It's a great partnership when you find a business like Mabra Law, who is committed to community service as Kiss 104.1 is," added Kiss 104.1 Director of Branding and Programming Terri Avery. "Serving the community is what it's all about."
