Salinas Area Chamber of Commerce Fdn

The Children’s Shopping Tour has become a special event in the Salinas community. Hundreds of local, low-income children are taken shopping for clothes, including shoes, socks, and much-needed winter garments. These children are the neediest in our Community. Many Shopping Tour recipients have told us how important and meaningful the event was for them as children. For many, the experience was powerful enough that, as adults, they wanted to help continue the event that offers so much to those who need it. This impact is why hundreds of volunteers return yearly to their community to provide that same gift again and again.
