Cailyn Gilchrist, 9, smiles after removing a pair of jeans from her backpack at the Road Home Shelter on Thursday. Cailyn and about 50 other children received backpacks filled with back-to-school clothes and school supplies thanks to the Educators Mutual Apple Tree program. Vivian Herrera, left, and her sister Shelbie Herrera check out their new back-to-school clothes at the shelter. Patrons at local retailers and employees of Educators Mutural donated thousands of items during the six-week-long program.
