NEW ALBANY, Ohio, July 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- We may have a few more weeks of summer fun, but tweens are already getting excited, and likely a little nervous, for the first day of school. To help give girls a little extra boost of confidence and encouragement as they get ready to start the new school year, Justice, the #1 destination for all things tween girls, is launching its new Back-to-School campaign - “This Year We Will” - aiming to provide confidence-boosting support and fashion that celebrates each girl’s individual style and empowers them to feel ready to excel during the new school year.
“Back-to-School is an exciting time in the lives of tweens - reuniting with friends, meeting new teachers and joining after-school activities, but we also know that these new experiences can cause a little anxiety,” said Lece Lohr, President for Justice Brand. “Our mission is to help girls shake off those nerves and walk into their first day of school with confidence. Our new campaign, ‘This Year We Will,’ aims to offer offers girls not only great new looks, but provide them with confidence-boosting opportunities that make each girl feel special from our empowering in-store events to the inspiring new content on the Live Justice App to our continued partnerships with like-minded brands, such as Girls on the Run.”
