DO YOU NEED HELP GETTING YOUR KIDS READY TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL?– Starts at 10 a.m.
Karma in Cullman is opening to the community on Saturday, Aug. 6.
On this day we welcome those in need to come out to our warehouse located at 785 Alabama Hwy 157 near the intersection of 69 and 157, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m.
On this day we will help each child with five (5) outfits of clothes, shoes, backpack and supplies, WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.
That means everything is on a first-come, first-served basis.
We have more of certain sizes than others so I suggest you try to come early to make sure we have the sizes you need.
We ask that you bring the children so they can pick out the clothes and shoes that they will want to wear to school.
We also ask that you bring their back-to-school supply list for their school and grade. We will try and help you with items on their lists instead of just giving out random supplies that they might not need.
This is open to anyone who is in need. If you have received help with supplies, but still need help with clothes we welcome you too.
