With AOBA’s help, students in Wards 2 and 6 can focus on learning, having been equipped with backpacks and calculators for the school year.  In Ward 2, AOBA received a request through Councilmember Jack Evans (D-Ward 2) to assist 20 students still in need of backpacks during the first week of school.  AOBA immediately responded to the request and presented 20 backpacks to ANC Commissioner Barbara Curtis on Aug. 28.   Commissioner Curtis collected the backpacks on behalf of 20 young residents of the Gibson Plaza Apartments located in the Shaw area of Ward 2.  Across the city, in Ward 6,  32 AOBA members contributed over $5700 to purchase 60 calculators for seventh graders at Eliot/Hine Middle School. AOBA will deliver the calculators to the principal at a special presentation with Councilmember Tommy Wells (D-Ward 6).
