LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Today, Dollar General became the newest partner to lend a helping hand to the Calcasieu Parish School Board as they donated $100,000.
In the aftermath of both Hurricanes Laura and Delta, the Calcasieu Parish School Board has felt the generosity of community partners both near and far.
The CPSB says Dollar General reached out several weeks ago expressing a desire to offer assistance to area schools as they recover from the devastation felt across SWLA.
