12th Annual Back-to-School Children’s Shopping Spree back in action.
Long Beach Junior Chamber takes low-income kids shopping on Saturday,
August 19th.
August 17, 2006 (Long Beach, CA)—The Long Beach Junior Chamber (LBJC) is
gearing up for its 12th Annual Back-to-School Children’s Shopping Spree, which
looks to be the largest yet. This year low-income children, selected by the Boys
and Girls Clubs of Long Beach, will be taken on a shopping spree for school
supplies and school uniforms. The event will be at Target in the Los Altos
Shopping Center from 7am to 9am on Saturday, August 19th.
“We are so excited to be able to take these kids shopping for school supplies
and school uniforms, thanks to the hard work of our committee,” said Randy
Terrell, LBJC VP of Community Development. “This event is the most rewarding of
any that we perform all year.”
Before the children go shopping, they will be treated to a free pancake
breakfast provided by Long Beach Firefighters, in addition to other fun activities.
At 8 am, the children will be teamed up with a Junior Chamber member and
given $100 gift cards to purchase school items like uniforms, shoes, and other
essentials. In addition to the gift cards, the children will be receiving backpacks
later in the week, and Target is providing one free school uniform shirt per child.
The Children’s Shopping Spree is a nationwide event hosted by hundreds of
Junior Chamber chapters across the U.S. The Long Beach chapter helped found
the event 12 years ago.
The Long Beach Junior Chamber is a leadership and civic organization for
individuals aged 21 to 40. Every year, in addition to monthly social, civic, and
training events, the Long Beach Junior Chamber hosts the Miss Long Beach
Pageant, Children’s Shopping Spree, and a Bachelor Auction to raise money for
cancer aid and education
