Kingsley, Susquehanna County -
Eleanor Meyer, of Kingsley, sorts through bags she's sending to Afghanistan. The bags are heading to her son, Army National Guard Captain Thomas Meyer. He's been in Afghanistan since February. A few weeks ago he asked for school supplies so he could pass them out to Afghan children.
The Meyer family reached out to elementary schools, churches and libraries in Susquehanna County. In a few months they had 325 bags and boxes of school supplies. Hopefully through these supplies Meyer's can help a new community.
