2023 Back to School Uniform & Backpack Program
Yesterday, Wednesday, September 6th the Back-to-School Uniform & Backpack giveaway event surpassed our own expectations! Celebrating TEN years of the FREE event and helping this year eighty parents and over two hundred Pontiac students with school essentials!
Our incredible team of volunteers embraced a new idea for distributing the school essentials. This year, the event was held at United Wholesale Mortgage Sports Complex instead of CCRT’s office location. The spacious meeting room at UWM-Sports Complex was transformed into a store for parents to shop from 9:30am to 2:30pm. Families shopped for their children’s new school clothing, new backpacks, slightly used uniforms, and school supplies. It was a fully packed room when the doors opened, and the event touched the hearts of everyone in there!

"This program has helped my family so much and is truly a blessing! They have helped us get through the tough times and have been a breath of fresh air!" ~ Christina.
"CCRT is a blessing! With CCRT my kids have uniforms, backpacks, and school supplies!" ~ Devian.

The power of community was at work in this years program, serving over 200 students! Each student enrolled in our program received two sets of new uniforms and gently used uniforms packed with love in a school backpack. The number of generous individuals that came together to help with this special program was heartfelt! The B-T-S Uniform Program was beyond successful this year because of people who care about others in our community. We thank you all!
