Live Breaking News & Updates on Community groups help

Oklahoma City police and community members spent their Monday afternoon unloading school supplies and filling up backpacks.
With a lot of families struggling financially, several groups are providing school supplies, food and even gas cards to families in need.
In just one week, Oklahoma City Public Schools will be opening their doors to thousands of students on their first day of school.
“We wanted to invest in our young people. Invest in our community in a way that has never been done before. We’re going to have games and prizes but more than that we are going to have resources. We are going to give them backpacks, school supplies, haircuts,” said Lt. Wayland Cubit with OCPD.
