Manos de Cristo hosts back to school event

AUSTIN, Texas (FOX 7 Austin) - Getting the kids back to school ready can be a very expensive thing for many parents, but Manos de Cristo is hosting a back to school event to help hundreds of parents and kids in our community.

Children in grades pre-K through 5th will receive a new backpack, two sets of clothing, socks, underwear and school supplies.
