The Locker

We’re back to business as usual on August 3rd!!

A huge THANK YOU to Dell for turning compassion into action on Nelson Mandela Day! 💙🎒

Your team came together with one goal—to make sure students head back to school feeling prepared and confident. Because of your incredible generosity, 200 backpacks were collected along with an amazing amount of school supplies that will help so many children start the school year with everything they need.

Nelson Mandela once said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” Your volunteers embodied that spirit by investing in the future of our community, one student at a time.

Thank you, Dell, for partnering with The Locker and helping remove barriers so every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. We are so grateful for your heart, your generosity, and your commitment to making a difference. ❤️

We will help over 300 students have backpacks and school supplies this year!
We wanted to share other ways to ensure that students get the supplies they need to go back to school.
So many amazing organizations supporting our students!

A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR AMAZING COMMUNITY PARTNERS!

ROCK The Locker would not be possible without the incredible businesses, sponsors, and community members helping us make this event a reality for local students.

📚✏️ BACK TO SCHOOL IS HERE! 🎒🧴

Every notebook, backpack, pencil, pack of markers, bottle of shampoo, stick of deodorant, and package of socks makes a difference in the life of a student.

When students have the school supplies and hygiene items they need, they walk into the classroom with confidence, dignity, and the ability to focus on learning—not on what they are missing.

Your donations do more than help students. They help teachers, too. Every year, countless teachers spend their own money to make sure students have basic supplies. By donating school supplies and hygiene items, you’re helping lighten that burden and ensuring resources are available when students need them most.

Together, we can help students start the school year prepared, confident, and ready to succeed.

📍 Donate school supplies and hygiene items today.
💙 Support students.
💙 Support teachers.
💙 Strengthen our community.

Because when kids have what they need, they can focus on becoming everything they’re meant to be.

🛍️ For many students, back-to-school shopping at Kohl’s is so much more than a shopping trip—it’s a fresh start. ❤️

For nearly 200 students, this is the first opportunity they have to choose brand-new clothes that actually fit. It’s a chance to express their own style, build confidence, and walk into school feeling like they belong.

Each student is paired one-on-one with a caring volunteer who helps them shop for everything they need to start the school year with confidence. Every student receives:

👕 A full week’s worth of new clothes
🧦 New socks and underwear
👟 Brand-new shoes
🧥 A cozy hoodie
🎒 A new backpack filled with school supplies
🪥 Hygiene essentials

What makes this day so special isn’t just what’s in the bags—it’s how our students are treated. Every child is given the opportunity to shop with dignity, make their own choices, and feel seen, valued, and respected.

We are incredibly grateful for our partnership with Kohl’s. Their team and our amazing volunteers work together to create an unforgettable experience that reminds students they are important and worthy of new beginnings.

The impact doesn’t end when the shopping trip is over.

Through this partnership, The Locker also receives Kohl’s Cash, allowing us to purchase additional clothing for the elementary school nurse closets. That means hundreds more students throughout the school year have access to clean, properly fitting clothing when they need it most.

One shopping trip creates a ripple effect that reaches children all year long.

Thank you to Kohl’s, our dedicated volunteers, generous donors, and everyone who helps make this day possible. Together, we’re doing more than providing clothes—we’re restoring confidence, preserving dignity, and ensuring every child starts the school year ready to succeed.

💙 Because every child deserves to feel confident.
💙 Every child deserves a fresh start.
💙 Every child deserves to know they matter.

You can donate to help with this program at https://www.thelocker.info/donate

This program costs approximately $45,000 each year.

Success in school is about more than pencils and notebooks. Sometimes, it’s about the opportunities a child almost missed. ❤️

When families face financial hardship, the first things to disappear are often the “extras.”

But those “extras” aren’t really extras at all.

They’re the marching band instrument that helps a student find their passion.

The athletic equipment that gives them confidence.

The field trip where learning comes to life.

The cap and gown that lets them walk across the graduation stage with pride.

The bike and helmet that gets them to work.

The work clothes that help them land their first job.

The bed that gives them a good night’s sleep before a test.

The academic fees, physicals, activity fees, and extracurricular expenses that keep them connected to their school community.

Research consistently shows that students who are involved in school activities are more likely to attend school regularly, earn better grades, graduate, and build positive relationships with peers and caring adults. Those friendships, mentors, and experiences become a support system that helps students thrive.

At The Locker, we believe every child deserves every opportunity to succeed. That’s why we don’t just provide basic necessities—we also provide life-enhancing items that remove barriers and open doors.

Because success isn’t just about surviving school. It’s about belonging, participating, discovering passions, building confidence, and creating a future filled with possibilities.

Every child deserves the chance to say “yes” when an opportunity comes along.

Together, we can make sure financial hardship never stands in the way of a student’s potential.

💙 Help us provide more than necessities.
💙 Help us provide opportunities.
💙 Help us change lives.
