More than 4,000 people turned out on Saturday at Antelope Valley Partners for Health for the annual Operation School Bell event. This year ALAV partnered with AVPH on Operation School Bell, in which we provided school backpacks and products for thousands of local families. ALAV purchased the backpacks and items to stuff them. Special thanks to AVPH and all of our dedicated volunteers! Check out the photo gallery below for photos of the event:
