The Salvation Army, in cooperation with Target, helps homeless kids get ready to go back to school.
See video.

On Tuesday, July 26 , more than 60 local students in need had the opportunity to visit the West Milwaukee & Oak Creek Target store to purchase school supplies, clothing and other must-have necessities just in time for back-to-school. The Salvation Army and Target helped 60 K-12 students across the city gear up for the upcoming academic year and get ready to succeed in school with the Target School Spree. Each child, selected by The Salvation Army, was awarded an $80 Target GiftCard to purchase much-needed back-to-school supplies. Each child was given a reusable Target shopping bag and paired with a volunteer chaperone for their fun day of back-to-school shopping.

Tinker the Horse helps ring bells for The Salvation Army. See videos of him ringing bells and raising money. 

If you want to see Tinker in action, he'll be at the Wal-Mart in Hartford on Dec. 10; the Wal-Mart in Germantown on Dec. 17; and at the West Bend Pick 'n Save at 1719 S. Main Street on Christmas Eve. The times at each site are 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. or a bit later.

Bring your camera, maybe a tasty carrot, and a little cash for the cause.
