Parents, don’t stress about back-to-school shopping this year! Friendly Hands Food Bank in Torrington is hosting their biggest FREE back-to-school giveaway, Kicks 4 Kids, on Sunday, August 18th from 11 AM to 1 PM at Elks Pond on Guerdat Road.
This event has everything you need to get your kids ready for the school year:
• Thousands of pairs of KICKS in all sizes—kids and adults!
• Clothing galore to refresh those wardrobes.
• 800+ backpacks ready to be filled with school essentials.
• Free food and games to enjoy while you shop.
All you need to bring is your Connecticut driver’s license to prove you’re a resident, and your kids must be with you to shop. Then, it’s time to shop away—completely for free!
And there’s more good news! Christine and Salt from Rise and Shine CT reached out to Karen Thomas, Executive Director of Friendly Hands Food Bank, to share that their charity is donating $1,000 to support this fantastic back-to-school effort. Listen to their conversation below, and make sure to mark your calendars for August 18th!
