Some local kids are getting the supplies they need to head back to school, courtesy of a Queens state senator.

Senator Jose Peralta held his annual Back to School Giveaway Saturday in Corona.

The senator's office distributed more than 2000 backpacks and other school supplies to students.

The line stretched around the corner and many parents said it was a huge help for them as their children prepared to go back to school in the coming weeks.

“An idea here, is to be a ‘twofer,’” Peralta said. “To help the parents because these are very expensive supplies, and at the same time help the kids so they can be prepared for school.”

This is the sixth year the senator has held the giveaway.
