Back to School: Give Back

Back to School: Give Back is an Elite Blendz hosted event where businesses and sponsors rally together to give back to the community by using their resources. Children 13 and under will have the ability to stop by for a haircut or hairstyling by one of Elite Blendz' barbers and/or will be given a grab bag of school supplies for their coming 2018 school year.

Back to School: Give Back will be a FREE event that goes from 12pm - 4pm on August 13th, 2018 and will be co-hosted by Onetime Supply Co. -- with catered food services rendered by The Mack Bar and Grill, JJ Twigs, and Onesto. Other contributing neighborhood businesses will participate by being donation drop-box centers.

Striving to accomplish this goal of giving back has been quite the process, but Im happy to see it all starting to come together. Special thanks to Les B. for helping facilitate this feat in conjunction with Elite Blendz and Onetime Supply Co. We were able to obtain more than 70 backpacks, 100+ folders, 1000+ pencils among other things to gift back to the community. This is really amazing

I would also like to thank Inner City Youth Tutoring, Inc. for their assistance with the event. They are a non-profit (501c3) independent tutorial business located in the City of St. Louis that specializes in educating, instructing, supporting and advocating for under-privileged and at risk students who cannot afford such services, yet are in need of individualized academic tutoring.

It's great to have their support with Back To School: Give Back, so again - thank you!
