Back to School Shopping Spree

​

On Saturday, July 26, 2025, The Salvation Army will partner with the JCPenney Spectrum to host Back To School Child Spree, our annual, back-to-school shopping program for disadvantaged children in Tucson. This year’s event will host 150 less-fortunate youth, ranging in age from Kindergarten to 12th grade.

Each child will receive a $150 gift card for new clothing and shoes as well as a new backpack filled with essential school supplies!

We are currently gratefully accepting school supply donations at our Hospitality House, 1002 N. Main Avenue, Tucson, AZ 85705.

• New, sturdy student backpacks
• Glue sticks
• Composition books
• Notebook paper
• Crayons and colored pencils
• Pens and pencils
• Rulers
• Spiral notebooks

The generous support of good people just like you is what make this annual program possible. If you can, please donate today and together, we'll make the future shine brighter for these wonderful children and their families.
