PALM DESERT, Calif. (KESQ) – As students head back to school across the Coachella Valley, Variety Children’s Charity of the Desert is highlighting the needs some local families face throughout the school year.

The nonprofit supports all students in need, helping provide resources and opportunities that families may otherwise struggle to access.
