KANNAPOLIS ó The Beav is coming to Kannapolis.
Actor Jerry Mathers, star of “Leave It To Beaver,” will roll into town Wednesday morning with a bus tour that helps people find financial assistance for prescription drugs.
Mathers has diabetes. He travels around the country with the “Help is Here Express” bus tour, part of the Partnership for Prescription Assistance.
The partnership promotes prescription assistance for people with chronic diseases like diabetes.
The bus will stop at the Cabarrus Health Alliance at 1307 S. Cannon Blvd. from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The bus doesn’t provide prescription medications, but people can apply to enroll in a number of assistance programs that offer medicines for free or nearly free.
