Feel Good Back-to-School Shopping at Warwick Mall with NOW 93.3
Shop, Donate, and Win Big!
Warwick, RI – This back-to-school season, make your shopping day at Warwick Mall even more rewarding!
On Sunday, September 8th, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM, Warwick Mall, in partnership with iHeart Media/NOW 93.3, invites you to donate your unwanted clothing, shoes, and linens to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Rhode Island (BBBSRI) and stand a chance to win exciting prizes.
How It Works:
Simply bring your clothing donations to Warwick Mall during the event, and you’ll receive an “Enter to Win” form. You could be one of the lucky winners of a $250 Warwick Mall Shopping Spree AND a $100 gift card to Not Your Average Joe’s! It’s a win-win situation: you clear out your closet, enjoy a day of shopping, and potentially walk away with fantastic prizes.
Why Donate?
Your donation supports BBBSRI’s mission to empower the youth of Rhode Island. Each year, BBBSRI serves over 250 young people with mentoring and more than 900 Rhode Islanders with workforce development, emergency funding, and enrichment activities. The impact is significant:
· 100% of Mentees advanced to the next grade
· 91% of parents reported improved mental health in their children
· 86% of parents observed increased self-confidence in their children
"We are thrilled to partner with Warwick Mall and iHeart Media for this exciting back-to-school event," said Kaleigh Perkins, Chief Operating Officer of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Rhode Island. "Not only does this event offer our community a chance to win fantastic prizes, but it also empowers them to make a meaningful impact in the lives of young Rhode Islanders. Every donation helps us provide vital mentoring programs, and it’s inspiring to see the community come together to support our mission while also helping the environment."
Environmental Impact
Donating also helps the environment. BBBSRI accepts all clothing and linens including ripped, stained, and mismatched items, which are recycled to prevent waste. In 2023, BBBSRI diverted 4 million pounds of textile waste from the RI landfill, with over 20 million pounds saved in the last five years.
