The bags, some donated from L.L. Bean, and the school supplies, donated from BigLots!, Wal-Mart Distribution Center, Androscoggin Chamber Business After Hours and the Auburn-Lewiston Rotary Club, will be delivered to schools throughout Androscoggin County for children in need. “It’s a great thing to do and a great cause,” said Bart Kelsea, who has been helping with the program for four years.
