JEVS Human Services teamed up with Forman Mills for a donation event at Orleans Technical College. “Shopping With Dignity” helped community members obtain items they need in a safe, welcoming environment. Items available included clothing, shoes, coats, household items toiletries, accessories, and more.

Recipients of this donation include local families from the community as well as families from the Center for New Americans, whose goal is to help refugees, asylees and victims of trafficking prepare to enter the workforce, find satisfying jobs ranging from labor to professional positions, and become self-sufficient members of society.
