O

n Aug. 12, the National Council
of Jewish Women, Michigan
(NCJW|MI) held its annual Back
2 School Store at Congregation Shaarey
Zedek. Although this year’
s store looked
different due to the pandemic, the mem-
bers of NCJW|MI said they knew they
couldn’
t abandon the children they serve.
For the past six years, the NCJW|MI
has held ItS Back 2 School Store, a pop-
up “store” that invites over 700 kids from
grades K-5 from Detroit to pick out free
school supplies.
Each child would normally pick out a
new winter coat, hat, gloves, pants, two
shirts, socks, underwear, shoes, school
supplies and a book.
This year, since they could not hold the
full-service store, they had to cut their
numbers down to serve 500 kids. The
NCJW|MI worked with 22 different ser-
vice agencies, who designated one person
to come pick up the supplies Aug. 12 at a
specific time.
In addition to the clothing, students
received masks and letters from the
NCJW|MI members to provide inspira-
tion.
“Hopefully, by this time next year, we’
ll
be back to doing the full-service store,

Sallyjo Levine, one of the vice presidents
of the NCJW|MI, said.
