Pair Up with JCPenney and Give Back for Back to School #SoWorthIt
School just started this week here in Georgia. This past week leading up to the first day has been crazy because there are just so many things to do. Three kids going to three different schools. We drive carpool everyday. All three kids also have before or after school activities. Three sets of paperwork. The TO DO list is still getting done. The picture above is my oldest child who was about to start high school. We hope that you enjoy this Pair Up with JCPenney and Give Back for Back to School #SoWorthIt post.
Clothes shopping was at the top our list. When it came time to shop for clothes, we went to JCPenney because my kids want cute, on-trend clothing and I want clothing that is affordable. I look for everyday value in whatever we buy. I want things that are made to last and that my kids will want to wear. This makes shopping at JCPenney so worth it!
Pair Up with JCPenney
This year we not only shopped at JCPenney for Back to School, we had the opportunity to also Pair Up with JCPenney. Did you know that 40% of low income parents worry about their child having enough socks and underwear? 55% of children who did not have underwear and socks to wear wanted to skip school or refused to go to school because they were embarrassed by not having any. JCPenney invites you to Pair Up and help areas where underserved children across the country are going back to school without basic clothing essentials like socks and underwear.
The JCP Pair Up is a giving program that runs from August 1-15, 2017. For each pack of kids’ socks or underwear you buy, JCPenney will donate a pack to the Y to help kids in need—up to 750,000 pairs.In addition to the Pair Up program, The JCPenney Foundation is making a $1M donation to the Y to help close the academic achievement gap.
We bought 6 packs of socks and 8 packs of underwear. My kids were excited and would have loved to buy even more! I love that fact that we are giving and that when buying something that my children need, another child will benefit.
Our Back to School Shopping Haul from JCPenney
JCPenney offers both value and clothes that my kids are guaranteed to love. Because JCP is so affordable, I was able to get a lot more for our money which meant that my son could get a few more things that he needed. JCPenney offers many brands at great price points. We made one-stop for clothes for the family.
All three kids got new clothes and underwear during our back to school shopping trip. My son really needed new clothes and we scored some great items for him. My middle child got exactly what she needed.
Our daughter (in the middle) is wearing the French Toast Two Tab Scooter Scooter Skirt for Girls along with the GoldToe Jersey No Show Socks. She is wearing an Arizona Burnout T-Shirt under her uniform sweatshirt.
My son is wearing Arizona Chino Shorts paired with his favorite Arizona Long Sleeve Henley Shirt (this is a few years old but we have linked to the current shirt). He also has a plain white tee: Arizona Crewneck Jersey T-Shirt.
In this picture, my son is wearing Xersion Zone Cushioned Crew Socks in black, Arizona Crewneck Jersey T-Shirt and these Dickies Relaxed-Fit Cargo Shorts that he tries to wear every single day because he says they are so comfortable. His plaid IZOD shirt was purchased a few years ago from JCPenney. We found a great Arizona men's plaid shirt here. Also pictured are his ubiquitous Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Sneakers.
Here is a breakdown of what we purchased for each kid:
14 year old boy
Xersion Ice Boxer Briefs
Xersion Zone Cushioned Crew Socks in black
Arizona Chino Shorts
Arizona Crewneck Jersey T-Shirt
Dickies Relaxed-Fit Cargo Shorts
adidas climacool Boxer Briefs
Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Sneakers

JCPenney offers a variety of high-quality, stylish pieces at great value. Shopping at JCPenney is always worth your time, money and effort with styles that are priced to buy and guaranteed to love.

This is such a moving video. It tells the story of a child who is in need and is embarrassed by that need. It just makes you want to do more.

This sounds like a fabulous program! Love the initiative. The video really was so important to watch, hard but important. Back to school style and giving back all in one!
I love the idea of the #PairUp program. Socks and underwear are certainly not glamorous clothing items but they are essential. I think I’m going to order some for my grandsons right now!
We love shopping at JcPenney! They have a great selection and the prices are just right. What a great program they have going on too!
I love to shop at JCPenney and the Give Back for Back to School program makes it even better to shop there. I will have to go this weekend to stock up on back to school clothes for my Son. I will have to pick out a few new pieces for myself as well.
I love JC Penney for back to school shopping!! Looks like you had a great haul!!
JCP is one of my fave places to shop for Back to School and this is the first time I’m hearing of this program. I am so excited as I imagine so many kids will benefit from it. Thanks for sharing.
What a great campaign. It’s true that there are so many children in need of socks and underwear. Kudos to JC Penny for launching this program.
Amazing program. SO very glad to see a company doing this and helping,. I actually had no idea about the underwear and socks being such a big obstacle where poverty is concerned too. So happy to see JC Penney doing this. I would shop there if we had one in Canada near me (Ontario)
This is awesome! Love that they have so many choices for the kids especially the boys, I have two that I need to shop for and JC Penney makes it easier for me to do so.
This is such a wonderful campaign! Love shopping at JCP and I love them even more now because of this. Looking forward to shopping for our kiddo at JCP!
This campaign is awesome! I love JCPenney and shopping their deals and finding great clearance prices. It’s my grandmas favorite store for gifts!
We love shopping at jcpenny but I wasn’t aware of this program. Now I’m even more excited to do our back to school shopping, knowing that jcpenny is giving back. I’ll make sure we really stock up on underwear and socks!
This is so wonderful! There are so many kids out there who desperately need so much more than just food. That’s only part of it.
I love shopping at JCP. They have such great clothes at amazing prices. I love to hear how they are giving back as well.
I love shopping at JCPenney, they have great options and they really do have decent prices. Glad you shared this as a reminder of what we can get there. Such a great place to shop!
Your son is looking stylish! It sounds like your kids will be off to a good start! It’s nice to have some new clothes to work with each year of school!
I love JC Penney. Ive always had lot good luck when I’m looking last be minute items
Another reason why I love to shop at JC Penney! It is awesome to learn of companies that give back to the community. Just by simply shopping at their store, I get the chance to help others in need!
This is awesome! It’s great that they are giving back to the community! Thanks for sharing this!
The video is very eye opening and a must watch. I love that JCP is doing what they can to help those in need. Looks like you got a nice variety for your kiddos as well!
I like the JCPenney’s is doing what they can to help those in need. I mean I go to JCPenney’s for almost all of my kiddos close and if I’m going to be there and buy something anyway why not give back to others at the same time.
I love the Penny. They have so many awesome options for kids.
I shop there all the time. They always have great deals and styles.
JC Penny has never failed me. Awesome prices and looks keep me going.
What a great program. JC Penney has really cute clothes, too.
JCP is a great place to shop for kids for back to school
What a great program! I’m already a huge fan of JCPenney now I love them even more!
I had no idea so many people worried about this. It’s great that JC Penney is doing this program.
That CEO shirt is really cool! I need to head to JCP to see if I can pick it up.
What a great campaign! I buy all my kids uniforms at JCPenney! I love the quality and they tend to have the colors I need – Red, Black, and white.
I love companies that give back! Such an amazing way to help others!
This is a great campaign! I do love JCPenney as well. They always have some great clothes.
I love that JCPenney is giving back! What a great way to help those who need it.
When I was in high school and doing my back to school shopping, my mom would take me to JCPenny’s and let me pick out a few outfits. They have always been great for BTS!
Pair Up with JCPenney sounds like a great program. We love to shop at JCPenney. They always have a great selection for the whole family.
I think it’s great that JCPenney is doing this. They are more than just a great place to find fashionable, good quality clothing.
My husband works for JcPenney. Im glad they do alot for different charities!
We do a lot of shopping at JCP year round, but especially back to school. Some weekends I feel like I should pack a lunch and stay with the awesome early bird and night owl sales lol!
What a wonderful program. When you’re running through a mental checklist of donations, those aren’t necessarily items that would come to mind. It’s great to see these donations being made.
It’s wonderful when companies give back. I’ve always liked JcPenney
What a great program. I love shopping JC Penney for my kids!
Back to School shopping is so easy when you can shop JC Penney online. And it makes the wallet happy to know our purchases help kids in need.
I dont think there is a JCPenney here in Philippines but this looks a great shopping.
Woo hoo for back to school shopping! It looks like JCPenney has some great back-to-school shopping ideas!
I love shopping JCP and as a former Special Education Teacher knowing that they are doing something to give back to kids makes me want to support them even MORE!
