News of the fire destruction of the Boys’s Home has brought national attention to the plight of the boys who lived at the home – and now are in need of school supplies so they can return to school as quickly as possible. On Friday, the JPS Foundation took the boys, ages 6 to 18, and their caretakers shopping for new shoes.
