[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our uniform bank uniforms were donated by one of our community partners. If your school has community partners (usually corporations - ours is a law firm), [b]they can usually get good bulk deals right before school starts[/b]. Old Navy, Children's Place, Gap, etc. will all have them.

The policy is that if kids come out of uniform, they have to go get one from the uniform bank. If families need assistance getting uniforms, they can speak to the front office and get some out of the bank. I don't know how many times either of those things have happened this year.[/quote]

OP here-- that is genius!  How are the bulk deals obtained?  Through Gap Foundation or something similar?[/quote]

Maybe, though our partner in this case just took advantage of the same sales we were all taking advantage of - BOGO, buy 3 get the 4th free, etc. Actual uniform stores might have even better discounts. You might also look at those companies that people use to print corporate polos and see if they make children's sizes. Otherwise, stay tuned for the sales that usually kick in during the summer. They will be pretty hard to miss :)[/quote]
