A local nonprofit is stepping in to help struggling parents with the financial burden of back-to-school shopping.
The Yonkers Community Action Program is giving parents a $125 voucher per child to spend on whatever their child wants.
To qualify for the voucher, people must be a resident of Yonkers, meet their income requirements and register for an event.
The voucher is for Jackie's Kids Clothes on Main Street.
Yonkers only has 130 vouchers to give out. 
They will be distributed on Monday at 10 a.m. Parents must register in advance here.
