SWAT
Nights
(Shopping
With
A
Teen)
With money raised through
donations, Back-to-School Clothes for Kids has shopping nights for teens at
the Galleria in White Plains and the Jefferson Valley Mall in Yorktown.
Some of these teens have never had a chance to shop for their own new
clothes! The SWAT Nights give teens an opportunity to get exactly what they
want- with the right look and the right fit.
Teens arrive with social
workers from various local agencies. With a budget (based on available
resources) and a volunteer the teens navigate the mall focusing on stores
who give Back-to-School Clothes for Kids a discount. New volunteers are
coached by trained captains and the process takes about a two-hour
commitment.
How can you help?
Monetary donations are
always welcomed for SWAT Nights. Back-to-School Clothes for Kids is a
non-profit corporation exempt from Federal Income tax. Gift cards are also
accepted.
Donations can be sent to:

either mall, you can help by offering a discount to our teen shoppers and
