Voter registration will be provided by the League of Women Voters and the Hickory Branch NAACP.
They will also have a resource fair of local help agencies who will have many free SWAG items to give away as well. The free furniture is given away on a first come first serve basis so participants are encouraged to come early to tag the pieces they want.
