Our VIsion:

Successful Students.

We provide free, anonymous stores inside schools filled with hygiene products, easy-to-eat food items, school-code clothing, and school supplies. By supplying students with the essentials, we aim to ensure that each child starts the school day healthy, confident and ready to learn.

How it works

We partner with school counselors, administrators, teachers, and non-profits to open stores in high poverty school districts. Schools provide the space and identified, school personnel to shop with students. We supply products, volunteers, and a look-and-feel to create a space of dignity!

We are growing each year! Interested in starting a store in your school? Contact us at contact@studentsuccessstores.org.
