The Salvation Army, in cooperation with Target, helps homeless kids get ready to go back to school.
See video.
On Tuesday, July 26 , more than 60 local
students in need had the opportunity to visit the West Milwaukee & Oak Creek
Target store to purchase school supplies, clothing and other must-have
necessities just in time for back-to-school. The Salvation Army and Target
helped 60 K-12 students across the city gear up for the
upcoming academic year and get ready to succeed in school with the Target
School Spree. Each child, selected by The Salvation Army, was awarded an $80
Target GiftCard to purchase much-needed back-to-school supplies. Each child was
given a reusable Target shopping bag and paired with a volunteer chaperone for
their fun day of back-to-school shopping.
