New York, NY (PRWEB) July 29, 2015
SoCozy Kids’ Hair Care, officially launched their first annual Back-To-School (BTS) Campaign, in partnership with STATE Bags and Roads to Success, addressing the immediate needs of local kids living with challenging circumstances.
The BTS Campaign launched July 24th 2015, with a bag drop event at Roads to Success in Bronx, New York and continues the ‘buy one, give one’ campaign online at SoCozy.com. There are so many kids in the U.S. that don’t have access to back to school basics. In the spirit of making change happen starting at the community level, SoCozy is taking action to ensure the kids at Roads to Success go back to school in style armed with all the supplies they need.
Cozy Friedman, founder of SoCozy, has long been a force in supporting, motivating, and connecting with moms and kids in local communities, and this campaign captures that spirit, and aims to bring the message across the country.
“At SoCozy, we have made a commitment to making a difference in mothers and kids’ lives,” says Cozy. “The partnership with STATE Bags and Roads to Success exemplifies our mission to build confidence and inspire originality, because we believe every kid deserves to feel good about going back to school.”
During this back-to-school collaboration, SoCozy aligns with like-minded partners STATE Bags and Yoobi school supplies, ensuring each backpack is filled with the tools they need to start the year off right.
