McGregor Jr. High Student Council gathers supplies for man helping devastated N.C. hometown

McGREGOR, Texas (KWTX) - A Lorena man trucking supplies Monday to his hurricane-ravaged hometown in North Carolina said his faith in humanity was restored after he picked up a truckload of supplies gathered by local junior high students.

Brian Buckner made a stop by McGregor Junior High School Friday morning to help load up donations the school’s student council gathered in just hours.

“I couldn’t appreciate more what the kids here at McGregor Junior High have done in 12 hours,” Buckner said. “It’s almost a van full of supplies going to Western North Carolina. The community stepped up and these kids are amazing.”

The McGregor Junior High Student Council put out the plea around 3 p.m. Thursday after Buckner shared his story with KWTX.
