Pechanga Volunteers Shop With Deserving Kids<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

TEMECULA<\/strong>, Calif. \u2013 (July 31, 2014) \u2013 Hundreds of area children will be going back to school this fall with a fresh look and more confidence thanks to one major retailer and hundreds of volunteers including more than 100 from Pechanga Resort & Casino<\/a>. Outside the Temecula Promenade <\/a>mall at 6:00a.m. on a recent Saturday, volunteers were paired up with a child from a low income family. The duos were each given a $125 JC Penny gift card so they could walk through the store and pick out new clothing and shoes for the school year. Kids could be seen leaving JC Penny with big bags and beaming faces as they ran to meet their moms and dads who waited for them in the store\u2019s parking lot. The yearly event put on by The Salvation Army helps more than 200 children in Riverside County. Youngsters were accompanied by volunteers from 10 Temecula area businesses including Pechanga Resort & Casino, which had 118 volunteers, the largest showing of people.<\/p>\n

\u201cPechanga has a long tradition of providing critical resources for the children and families of our community,\u201d said Ken Perez, a member of the Board of the Pechanga Development Corporation who was one of the volunteers. \u201cMany of our members struggled for basic necessities like new clothes and supplies for a new school year. We know confident and comfortable children also translate into better academic performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many of the parents of kids who got to shop could be heard throughout the morning thanking volunteers and the Salvation Army representatives for their efforts. Many volunteers also reached into their own pockets and covered remainders if children\u2019s items totaled more than $125.00.<\/p>\n

“We are grateful for the support of Pechanga and our other community partners,\u201d said Major Butch Soriano of The Salvation Army. \u201cWithout them, this very needed event may not happen and these children would not receive the necessary clothing and supplies to start the school year.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
