No one wants to think about school while in the throes of summer vacation (except maybe exasperated parents looking for a moment’s peace). But the start of school looms large for parents struggling to clothe their kids each year.
The Family Service Association’s annual Khakis for Kids Uniform Drive is in full swing and our client, Paloma Blanca Mexican Cuisine, is one of the partners. You can drop off donations of new and gently used khaki pants, skirts, shorts and white collared shirts at Paloma Blanca through the end of July. Just look for the drop-off box inside the front door of the restaurant and help a child start their school year with the uniforms they need.
