By Cynthia Yapp, Publisher July 22, 2016

Macaroni Kid SW Miami – Kendall presents the 2nd Annual Back-To-School Resource Fair, an informative and resourceful family event that will provide families direct contact with health and social services, community services, after-school and extra-curricular activities, and local educational information.

Last year, in addition to free health and dental screenings, we were pleased to give away over 200 backpacks filled with school supplies to children in our community – our aim for this year is to give away backpacks to the first 400 kids in attendance!
