Commonwealth Exterminating in Newport News, VA recently asked the community to roll up their sleeves and help children in downtown Newport News by supporting a School Supply Drive. Sponsored by the Old Point National Bank, Salon Vivace, Heaven and Earth Bookstores, Cooks Moving Company, Commonwealth Exterminating and five other radio stations, the school supply drive was a huge success.

The supplies were given out to children that attended the South East Community Day on September 6^th and September 13^th. It was great to see the smiles from the children and even some tears of joy from the moms and dads that walked with their children. Because of these efforts, their children will have the resources for the completion of education. It's amazing what small things will do to impact a person's life for both the giver and the receiver.

Exterminators have access to some of the most influential people in their communities. Let's continue to pull our resources of those whom we network with to make our communities a better place. We can make a difference.
