Two teens lead charity that gives school supplies to low-income students

It’s no secret 17-year-old girls can be boy-crazy. But instead, Susanna Lau and Lana Nguyen, seniors at San Francisco’s Washington High School, are crazy about aiding low-income students like themselves.

To dispense free basic school supplies that might lead to academic success, the two last May founded SupplyHopeInfo, a charity that aims to solve a new problem wrought by the pandemic: that low-income students can’t rely on school resources for distance-learning.
