The Otero County Processing Center distributed more than 200 backpacks to the Gadsden Independent School District and Alamogordo Public Schools this week, according to KTSM. The donation aims to help local children and families manage costs associated with returning to school.

The processing center, which operates in southern New Mexico near Las Cruces, identified the back-to-school period as an opportunity to support the community through the gift.
