Back to School Shop’s 12th Annual Event
Was a Resounding Success!
Over 450 children shopped for Brand New coats, sneakers, pants, shirts, hoodies, underwear, socks, hats (hand-made!), gloves, backpacks, school supplies, water bottles, lunch boxes and books! Ten local agencies were available to meet with families about services they could provide, an author/illustrator gave each child a signed copy of his new book, and parents were able to visit a mobile food pantry to choose groceries to take home. Nearly 250 community volunteers worked to make the event possible! What a day! Can’t wait until next year!
Thank You Volunteers!
Thank you to all of our volunteers for making the annual Back to School Shop event possible. Whether you were loading, unloading, setting up, breaking down, checking in, checking out, escorting children through the shop helping them try on shoes or any of the many other jobs-we couldn’t have done it without every one of you!
