provides a free shopping spree
Just in time for the beginning of a new school year, with all of its attending anticipation as well as uncertainties, the National Council of Jewish Women invited families from an area shelter to their thrift shop, Thriftique, for a happy time of shopping for back-to-school clothing.
The clothes racks are full.
Moms and kids find plenty to choose from.
If you can't find something you like in one rack, you'll surely find it in another.
First is the joy of finding the "right" jeans, a favorite team's logo shirt. Then comes the happy anticipation of showing off the new clothes.
Of course, shopping is hard work when you're young.
A snack certainly helps.
The very picture of a satisfied shopper!
From the families and from HCEF: "Thank you, Thriftique!"
