The Back 2 School Store (B2SS) is a one-day annual event held during the month of August. This year it takes place on Sunday, August 18th, 2019. This event supports Detroit students who are pre-selected by local social service agencies, and who are in need of the appropriate school supplies to help provide them with a successful school year. Our pop-up store is designed to look like a department store where each child “shops” with a personal shopper (an NCJW | MI volunteer) for new clothing: shirts, pants, socks, underwear, winter coat, hat, gloves, and shoes. The child also can choose a new backpack, filling it with school supplies and personal care items. Please see this video and see news articles here to learn more about our B2SS.
Your support is essential!
