WELLINGTON, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES, July 25, 2023/einpresswire.com / -- R&B Star Mark Morrison is stepping up to help the local non-profit Student & Athlete Mentoring Program (stamp ) send some underprivileged students back to school in style. The Mall at Wellington Green, located at 10300 Forest Hill Blvd, Wellington, FL 33414, is opening its doors early on Tuesday, July 25, 2023, to accommodate the British singer and the kids from the STAMP program as they shop for school shoes. Nike's, to be exact.
Morrison's childhood memories of being teased for wearing what the kids called cheap shoes from K-Mart have stayed with him. He empathizes with kids who may face similar situations due to their financial circumstances. While he appreciates his parents' hard work to provide for him, he understands the importance of not letting children feel excluded or inferior.
"I can still remember the kids calling my shoes cheap; I didn't care until they started teasing me," says Morrison. "I don't think any kid should have to go through that, and I will do my part to make sure that does not happen.''
The goal of the Prepped, Pressed & Dressed for School is to send 200 students back to school with three brand new uniforms, shoes, school supplies for the year, haircuts for the guys, and hair salon visits for the girls.
“All summer long, we have prepared the kids for their academic success so when they get back to school, they can keep up with their work; now we have to make sure they are all pressed up and dressed for school,” said Mark Brown, founder of Student & Athlete Mentoring Programming (STAMP).
