Needy Students Awarded $85 Shopping Spree for Back to School Supplies from Target and the Salvation Army

On Tuesday, July 26, 30 local Booth House Sheltar students in need will have the opportunity to visit a Target store in Pikesville to purchase school supplies, clothing and other must-have necessities just in time for back-to-school. The Salvation Army and Target are helping 90 K-12 students across the Greater Baltimore Area 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, will be awarded an $85 Target Gift Card to purchase much-needed back-to-school supplies. Each child will be given a reusable Target shopping bag and be paired with a volunteer chaperone for their fun day of back-to-school shopping. Ten Police Officers will volunteer as chaperones.
