YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA)- 15 lucky kids will get a special back-to-school shopping trip Saturday.
The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley’s Yuma branch, along with the help of community volunteers, will provide each child with $250 for clothes and school supplies.
The event helps ease the cost of back-to-school shopping for families. The kids were chosen based on financial need and good behavior.
Volunteers from Raising Cane’s, Dutch Bros, and the T-Mobile Foundation will shop with the youth at JCPenney.
Organizers say the morning is about more than shopping, it’s about building confidence and community.
