Hip hop singer and dancer Ciara helped students get ready for school.
Ciara, a Grammy-Award winning singer, appeared at office supply store Staples to help volunteers fill 5,000 bags with notebooks, calculators, binders and more at the Children’s Aid Society Dunlevy Milbank Boys & Girls Club in New York.
It was part of Staples’ second annual “Do Something 101″ back-to-school event. The supplies will go to needy children in the New York City area.

Chaske Spencer, who portrays Sam Uley on Twilight sequel New Moon, and Canadian hip hop singer Leah Renee also helped fill bags for the needy children.
I wonder why Chris Brown wasn’t also volunteering for the Staples event to shave off the court-mandated 1,400 community service hours for pleading guilty to beating his ex, pop star Rihanna.
