Piggly Wiggly Donates Backpacks and Food

The Wagener Community once again lives out the scripture, "Give, and it shall be given unto you...!" The students from Busbee Elementary and A.L. Corbett Middle Schools would like to thank Piggly Wiggly for blessing our students with new back packs and food items. Both of these gifts are beneficial to our students throughout the year and are very much appreciated. A special thank you to the Piggly Wiggly patrons who purchased the sturdy and colorful backpacks filled with nutritional food for our students.
